a98gsxr Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Is RPC Locator a service in XP64? My install does not show it as a service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 You should indeed see it as "Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Locator" in the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluberti Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Was this XP x64 source modified in any way before you installed it, or was this installed straight from a Windows CD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluberti Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Wouldn't really know where to begin, then. The RPC Locator service uses %systemroot%\system32\locator.exe, which relies on advapi32.dll, kernel32.dll, msvcrt.dll, and ntdll.dll at the bare minimum. You also would need the registry entries under HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\RPCLocator to actually see / interact with the service as well.I would instead suggest using a legit copy of Windows instead of hacking with an illegal copy downloaded from the 'net, which also violates board rules discussing warez.

cluberti Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Is the service there on a clean media install? If you used nlite or similar, we should probably move this there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
