Windows 2000 Bootstrap - Setup & Startup Process:The Windows 2000 startup process is similar to the startup process for Windows NT 4.0 but is significantly different from other operating systems. In MS-DOS, Win95, and Win98, the computer loads the IO.sys file followed by Msdos.sys and Command.com. However, in Windows 2000, these files only exist on computers that have multiple-boot configurations with Windows 95, Windows 98, or MS-DOS. The following list describes the startup sequence on a computer running Windows 2000 Professional:
Note: System Startup Sequence only applies to a system started from a reboot or a power off state. This sequence does not apply to a system turned on from a hibernated state. This startup sequence applies to all versions of Windows 2000.
