Windows 2000 build 1743

Windows 2000 build 1743.1 is a build of Windows 2000 that is notable for being difficult to install. The safe to shutdown dialog box, used in previous NT builds since Windows NT 3.1 build 297.1, has been replaced with a temporary text-only safe to shutdown screen, presumably in preparation for the newer boot and safe to shutdown screens seen in build 1796.1 and up. This build is also the first Windows NT build to include Advanced Startup Options and Safe Mode.
