how to put winsrv back into xp pro OS??

[Guest]

My laptop lost winsrv from Windows when I installed SP2.
(I am getting a Stop: c0000135)
I found the tech note from MS on that problem and downloaded the
fix with my desktop computer.

I put in my OS (xp pro) disk into laptop and tried to use the Recovery
Console.
But it is asking for an Administrative Password. I know that I didn't set
up
a password for this laptop. I tried leaving it blank but that isn't the
right
answer.

I can't repair the OS without getting into console, can I?? I downloaded
the
fix from Microsoft (an .exe). I burned it to cd but I can't figure if it is
possible
to even load it from this situation. I tried a safe mode but can't get into
it
either (get same stop message).

What can I do? The laptop has critical info on it.

Thanks,
jenny

Speak to the person who installed for the password.

That is no help. I installed the system. xp has a bug and
apparently, it often won't take a password in recovery console.
Why do you reply when you have nothing intelligent to add???

Did you install using an OEM or retail version of XP?
