It was actually replaced in XP. You can use the msinfo tool instead.

To use the System Information tool to view problem devices
In the Run dialog box, type msinfo32 and then click OK.

Click Components, and then click Problem Devices.

To use the System Information tool to view shared and conflicting resources
In the Run dialog box, type msinfo32 and then click OK.

Click Hardware Resources, and then click Conflicts/Sharing.

Note The Windows NT 4.0 tool Windows Diagnostics (WInmsd.exe) is not
available in Windows XP Professional. Use System Information to obtain
similar information. To start System Information at the command prompt, type
msinfo32.
