Try JV16 Power Tools (it's free), available at http://www.vtoy.fi/jv16/index.php -- it runs under all versions of Windows, does what msconfig does and more, and does it better.

MSConfig was left out of 2000; but you can copy the XP version to the 2000 machine without problems.

Added any new software, updates, or patches lately? Or updated drivers? That can cause shutdown problems.
