I've noticed that you have also been on the opentech support forum. Did you follow
through to setting your clock back and finding/uninstalling a program called CPR?
The thread was here.
If that does not work and it appears that there is no sysfader.exe program in W2K,
then I suggest that you try the following procedure to repair your W2K. Go to Start,
run, type sfc /scannow ,click OK. Insert your W2K CD. The program will check for
corrupted files and reinstall them. Unfortunately it does not provide a report. If
that does not work then try repair using the Win2K CD. You will need to change the
booting order of your computer. When you start up your computer, press the Delete
key (sometimes it is F2 or F5) and a BIOS screen will appear. There you will be able
to change the booting sequence to CDROM being first. Save and reboot. Watch closely
as "Boot from CDROM" will come up quickly and allow you no more than 5 seconds to
"Hit the key to Boot from CDROM". When you hit a key it will boot from the Win2k
CD. The CD will load files which takes a minute or two. Then, choices appear as Install,
Repair etc. Choose Repair. It will ask you for Manual or Fast. Try the fast one 1st
and if that doesn't work try the 2nd one. 2nd one,,,Reboot with win2k cd select install
it will ask you if you want to try to repair the win2k you have on the machine select
YES....Note: It will NOT overwrite you data files just put down new OS systems files..
When it is finished, while rebooting, change the sequence back to the original one,
save and proceed. It should work. If you are new to this, I suggest that you jot
down on paper what you are doing, so that you can retrace your steps. Finally, if
that does not work then repost and I'll give you suggestions in editing the registry
with a freeware program to get rid of the sysfader.exe Good luck.
