Try JV16 Power Tools (it's free), available at http://www.vtoy.fi/jv16/index.php -- it runs under all versions of Windows, does what msconfig does and more, and does it better.

MSConfig was left out of 2000; but you can copy the XP version to the 2000 machine without problems.

...I have noticed my laptop has really slowed down when it shuts down...
Added any new software, updates, or patches lately? Or updated drivers? That can cause shutdown problems.
