help with Windows File Protection error

[GF]

Ever since using Win2K Professional, I occasionally get
the error "Files That Are Required have been
replaced....please insert your Win2K CD...".

I found a page in the MS Knowledge DB that addresses this
exact issue, but the instructions say:

6. When the list of available snap-ins are displayed,
click Certificates, and then click Add.

7. Click Computer Account.

I can't click Computer Account, because there is no such
thing. Is this supposed to be on the list where
certifiactes was, or a button, or a tab..? I've searched
my screen high and low and and found nothing even close to
that. All I have is Add and OK buttons. If I click ok it
brings me back to the MMC window, and Computer Account is
nowhere to be found there either.
