put in the win2000 cd and boot from it. select repair when asked what you want to do it will rumble on the disk for a while and might reboot . if it reboots select repair again ( always specify automatic.
this will put back any missing or modified system files. eventually it will tell you to remove the disk and boot normally ( it cna reboot up to 3 times before it prompts you to remove the cd once that is done i suggest you install service pack 2 Tony Karavidas wrote: >I was getting ready to install the DXP demo and so was 'cleaning' my system >by uninstalling some other stuff ;) > >After removing several items, the windows (un)installer said: > >The Windows Installer Service could not me accessed.
