restore removed services?

[Spudsteruk]

I nlited an install for my ASUS eee. Since then I have got a windows home server. For this to work properly, my eee requires the volume shadow copy service (vss) running. Unfortunately I believe I removed it during the nlite config.

short of starting from scratch, anyway I can get it back?

thanks!

try this

find this files on the fresh cd

\I386\EVENTCLS.DL_		
\I386\SWPRV.DL_			
\I386\TWEXT.DL_		
\I386\VOLSNAP.IN_		
\I386\VOLSNAP.SY_	
\I386\VSSADMIN.EX_		
\I386\VSSVC.EX_			
\I386\VSS_PS.DL_

expand them

then copy all dlls and exes to system32 folder and the .inf file to the inf folder.

then register all dlls and then run the .inf

then restart.

i hope it will work

Thanks for your idea, but it didn't work. Copied those files from the original XP CD, expanded and placed them in the correct folders. Used the regsvr32 command to register, installed .inf but still no volume shadow service, even after reboot.

any further help would be great.
