Hi,
  Is there anyway I can change the startup parameter without using
enterprise manager for -dC:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL\data\master.mdf
-dC:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\data\mastlog.mdf

Thanks
Ed

Check out "Starting SQL Server Manually" in the BOL.

specific file under c:\Program Files\MS SQL Server\......

The default startup parameters are stored in the registry.  If you don't
want to use EM, these are also exposed through SQL-DMO.  You could also
modify the registry entries directly, but at your own risk.

Hope this helps.

For a default instance (in SQL Server 2000), the key is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\MSSQLServer\Parameters
