Does anyone know where/how to get the uptime, in Win2k?
Well, the quick and dirty way would be to go to your Event Viewer, and go to the System Log. In the System Log, you'll find entries for the "eventlog" service. All you have to do is find the last "eventlog" service with the Event ID of 6009 and whatever time that event was logged, was the time your computer came up. Now just find the number of days/hours/minutes from your current time.
Or, if you are lazy, you can get the Windows 2000 Resource Kit. This kit includes a program called uptime.exe which automatically does what I mentioned above and gives you the uptime.

you can download a few tools at www.download.com
I use psuptime available from http://sysinternals.com
(a lot of other great tools available from them).
if just knowing the logon time and date will serve your purpose, just hit controll alt del.
