Every time I turn on my PC a message appears:

Windows 2000 could not start beause the following file is
missing or corrupt:

\WINNT\SYSTEM\vgaoem.fon

You can attempt to repair this file by starting windows
2000 setup using the original setup floppy Disk or CD-
ROM. Select 'r' at the first screen to start repair.

I dont have the CD-ROM where can I download this file?
 
Hi Peter,

That file is not publically avaliable for download as it's copyrighted by
Microsoft and ships with Windows 2000.

If you find your Windows 2000 CD you can use Recovery Console to manually
copy the file down, versus doing a full repair. For more information on
Recovery Console check out knowledge base article: Q318752 - HOW TO:
Install and Use the Recovery Console in Windows 2000

Hope this helps.
