Don't write you question (or parts of it) only into the Subject: line!
Instead of using CD ROM which I had to click 1000s of times ?

More input!
Do yourself a favor and search google for "how to ask smart questions"!

Search the MSKB (http://support.microsoft.com/) for SFC and you should
find at least something like that:

- if you installed W2K with SP4 from a slipstreamed CD this should not
occur.
Check
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup]
"SourcePath"="..." ; points to \i386 of your installation source
"ServicePackSourcePath"="..." ; idem

- if you installed W2K with SP<4 from CD and then SP4 this should not
occur to!
Check
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup]
"SourcePath"="..." ; points to \i386 of your installation source
"ServicePackCachePath"="..."
"ServicePackSourcePath"="..." ; points to \i386 of the unpacked SP

The paths are normally:
- your CD-ROM
- %SystemRoot%\ServicePackFiles\ServicePackCache
- %SystemRoot%\ServicePackFiles or CD-ROM
