I had a server with windows 2000 crash, now I am unable to
add/remove windows components. I receive the error
message "setup cannot load master information file" this
message comes up when I try to use the cd to add new
components as well as in safe mode. Suggestions?
 
Hello,

Try running the following command...

REGSVR32 APPWIZ.CPL

If that doesn't work, check out the following article...
