Have you installed Windows XP Service Pack 2? What happens when you start
services.msc? If you can start services.msc follow these directions:

1. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK.

2. In the list of services, right-click Automatic Updates, and then click
Properties.

3. In the Startup type list, click Automatic, and then click Apply.

4. If Service status is set to Stopped, click Start, and then click OK.

5. Right-click Background Intelligent Transfer Service, and then click
Properties.

6. In the Startup type list, click Manual, and then click Apply.

7. If Service status is set to Stopped, click Start, and then click OK.

Let me know if this helps.

Are you running an administrator account? If you look in %windir%/system32
(type this in the run command) does services.msc show up in there?

I am running an administrator account. And if i look in the directory it is
there. But when i click on it it also will not open at all!!! I think it
wants to open in a wrong program, can this be the case, Or it opens somewhere
where i can not see it......

Check your associations. E.g. open a cmd window and enter:

assoc | find /i "msc"

When I do that I see:

.msc=MSCFile

So then enter:

ftype | find /i "MSCFile"

That returns:

MSCFile=%SystemRoot%\system32\mmc.exe "%1" %*

So that would be your clue to try to Run...

mmc.exe

With it you could press Ctrl-o and drill down to that services.msc
file you found. See if that works any better for you.


Alternatively, you could do some of your checking and control
also from the command line, using commands such as sc.exe and
net.exe. The service names in that case would be wuauserv and
bits.
