taskman prob

[kronuskaos]

i'm not really sure if this *actually* belongs here.. but i noticed something the other day. as a result of all of my latest disc "builds", task man has stopped showing who (or for the matter what) is launching what process in the "processes" tab. i have included a screenie for clarification; you'll notice that there is nothing in the middle section. anyhow, i can't seem to make heads or tails of why it would do that.

No probs with my setup.

Maybe something in your regtweaks is causing this effect?

[kronuskaos]

i was thinking that (i mean that seems to be the logical thing thing to think).. but i can't seem to narrow down what could be the source of that.. i guess this would be the appropriate time to post what i have in the reg for the user account...

useraccounts.cmd (via cmdlines.txt):

@echo off

i didn't find anything else (in a quick search thru my files on the disc), but if there is anything else i should post to help, or anything else that *should* exist, let me know and i'll look/post it.

[jrzycrim]

I do know that the 'Terminal Services' service needs to be enabled. Check and see if that service is running. If not, then that is most likely the problem.

[Denney]

Yep. That's exactally the problem. Terminal Services need to be running.

Are you using nLite and removed Terminal Services? If so, then there's your problem.

[kronuskaos]

ahh, yes i did use nLite... and i prolly removed it from there... this means i have to re-make a new disc with nLite to use it again, eh?

[Denney]

Unfortunately yes.

I've done this many times (removed something and had to start over to fix it).

[kronuskaos]

awesome guys, that fixed it. the all mighty jrzycrim has struck again thank you guys. and you too RaveRod & MHz.
