task scheduler

What do you mean, it's not available to run? The service doesn't exist, or
the option to start it is disabled? Have you installed the latest RPC
security updates and re-enabled your RPC service? The task scheduler
depends on that service.

The service does not exist. Yes i have installed the
latest RPC patch and re-enabled RPC.
 
I get an error stating that it cannot run because it
depends upon RPC. I can start and stop RPC all day long!
 
When I typed in net start "task scheduler" the reply was
that service name was invalid
 
Oh yeah. In 2000 it's called schedule. Sorry, I was remembering XP. So
enter

net start schedule

Same thing Ray...service name is invalid. By the way
thanks for your assistance in this brain draining matter!
 
You need a new computer. ;]

Does this registry key exist?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Schedule

If not, here you can try pasting this into a .reg file and merging it. This
is exported from a Windows 2000 Server SP3 here where I am.
