Question : missing gpt.ini

HI. i have just taken charge of a small windows 2000 server, 2000 workstation network.Tried to set up a few domain Gpo's then discovered that the default doin gpo was in the recylce bin! recovered it. but now get error message when i try to edit it " cannot access gpt.ini"

Further complication...the old gpo took away the "run" option from the start menu. How can i get to command line?
