Hello Jaysen

I have done just as you suggest . . .
here is the result :

when holding the shift key, I press F10.
The command window opens. I typed : tskmgr
and then pressed enter. The response =

C:\WINNT\System32\inetsrv>tskmgr
'tskmgr' is not recognized as an internal or
external command, operable program or batch file.

I am grateful for your efforts, or anyones efforts. Is
there another option
to try before yanking and trashing the entire hard drive ?

Here is another option.

When the hang occurs, hold down the "shift" key and then press the "F10"
key. This will open a command window. Type "tskmgr" (without the
quotation marks), and then press ENTER to open Task Manager.

Click the "Processes" tab. In the list of processes, click "dllhost.exe",
and then click "End Process".

You may receive an error about COM+ setup. Just click "OK" to the error.
Now type "exit" at the command prompt. This should get the Windows 2000
setup process running again.

Please try typing taskmgr instead of tskmgr in the command prompt. There
is a typo in article 826717 that I copied the information from.
