Cannot start SQL Trace (Profiler) on Windows 2000 Professional

Hello all!
I have installed SQL Server 7 Client components on a Windows 2000
Professional machine.
I can start the Query analyzer and I can use it to connect to servers.
However, when I try to start SQL trace, I am getting the following
error message
"sqltrace.exe, not a valid win32 application."
Have any of you come across this problem? Please suggest a solution.
If you need any more information, please let me know.
Thank you,
Martin.
The file could have been corrupted. Have you checked your disk to see if
there are any errors?
You may be able to fix it by reinstalling the client utilities, if that is
not a problem.
