blackbull Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 Try with ur nlite cd to expand services from i386 folderOpen a command promptgo to cd_drive\i386 and writeexpand services.ms_ c:\windows\system32\services.mscHope it helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattofak Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 either that, or run the MMC straight off the command line without it running anything, and then you could re create the mmc file that your missing, unless its missing the actually mmcapplet, in which case your better off following blackbull's advice. However, all you would have to do would be to go, start->run->mmc and then fiddle around adding snapins as you please via file->Add/Remove snap in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XtremeMaC Posted January 5, 2005 Author Share Posted January 5, 2005 typing in mmc worked, but i cannot save anything and bc of that when i close it the services.msc and others won't work, only method is to manually go to mmc.extracting the file did not change anything..

mattofak Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 so you cannot even goto File->Save?, thats very strange! i dont know what to tell you then!If you just didnt know how to save, all you want to do is add the services plugin and then save as services.msc under c:\windows\system32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattofak Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 hmm, thats very strange, i've never heard of that happening! its almost like the serivices manager is corrupt or something...here, try my services.msc, see if that works, and in the meantime ill see what dlls and things are needed for it to work...[edit]hmm, found one obvious one, if my services.msc doesnt work, replace your services.exe file, also in c:windows\system32, that might be causeing some of your probsservices.msc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
