Don't know if there are logs. <br />
<br />
Tried re-installing and that didn't work. <br />
<br />
Downloaded &quot;Windows Registry Repair Pro&quot; ($10). Ran that and it fixed tons of errors. Then Registry scan in Norton worked.<br />
<br />
Background: Before this, I had had some data errors on an external drive, which I was able to repair with Windows Error-checking. I think maybe that dumped a whole load of crap in the registry which the Norton scan couldn't handle.<br />
<br />
Which would verify your feelings about Norton!<br />

Have tried re-starting with DiskDoctor check.

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
