By disabling the wrong services under Windows 2000 server I cannot start
them by using the GUI tools. Even in the even viewer I cannot see the errors
anymore. Right mouse button does not show the search windows when asked for.
Who knows articles that describe how to do this with the names of the
executables of the Win 2000 server services.
Thanks

Can you get into regedit?

If so then get to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Service

Locate the services you have disabled (you may have to do a find) and look
at the Start entry.
2 = Automatic
3 = Manual
4 = Disabled

Make the relevant changes then reboot the server.
 
You can run NET START "Service Name" from the command prompt.

That won't work if he has disabled the sevice.
