Not eventlog.dll, although they're probably related: The Event Log.

Somewhere, Windows has a critter called the Event Log or Event Viewer. It exists in NT, IIRC, and 2000, and I believe in XP. Look around in Control Panel or Accessories for it. It shows what happens internally when the system boots and often when it crashes, so you get a better chance to see what blew up.

On Monday I'll be back on a Win2k machine and can give you more thoughts, if needed. I'm too lazy to boot it tonight...
