background intelligent transfer service in windows xp pro service pack 2

[Cory56]

The BITS in startup is set to automatic but when I select the Start button I get-
( error #1083-The executable program that this service is configured to run in does not implement the service.)

No clue as to a solution for this. This is an older laptop I recently tried to use again and I need to update from SP/2 to SP/3 but this problem is keeping my windows auto updates from installing the SP/3 file.

Don't know if you can help me but I am going blind trying to fix it myself.

Thanks 4 your time,
Cory

I think you're last try will be the registry...
This might help, but you need to get to regedit:

Thx for the reply. Since that post I have cured 99% of my problems with a slew of tests and some key software(all freeware I might add ). It took me a couple of days and some loss of sleep but I finally got the service pack 3 installed and it's been all downhill from there.

Got a follow up email from ya'll wondering if I had gotten a response to my original post which I did. Here is another one saying thanks and since then I've got things running pretty smooth now.
