Can someone who uses an MS OS other than Win2K show me their path to msconfig? Thanks!

A w2k user couldn't show you the path anyway. w2k does not have msconfig, so anyone who does have it, has it anywhere he pleases.

My guess is either c:\windows\msconfig.exe or c:\windows\system32\msconfig.exe

I know. I AM a win2k user, found out that it's not part of that OS, so that's why I asked the question that way. Right now, msconfig.exe is sitting in my unzipped folder, but typing C:\unzipped\msconfig.exe only opens the folder. I want to be able to just type msconfig from the "Start" => "Run" dialog without having to enter the entire path. Thanks.

Then you need to put the msconfig.exe file to a known path.
Observe your path environment by typing 'set path' in command prompt window. Now, move the msconfig.exe in one of those folders and it should work fine.
