Can not start Terminal Services service

[Guest]

Hello folks,

i cannot start Terminal Servcises service. Anytime i try to start it i get
this error message: "Could not start the Terminal Services service on Local
Computer, Error 126: The specified module could not be found." I tried to
copy termsrv.dll to c:\windows\system32 and c:\windows\system32\dllcache from
my windows xp SP2 cd, but still getting the same error message. Any idea what
i could try next?

Thanks

Hi dynamox,

You must expand the termsrv.dl_ file from the XP CD. Simply copying it does
not help.

Dynamox,

If you're running Windows XP SP2, then download the following file:

http://windowsxp.mvps.org/temp/termservice.reg

Save the file to Desktop. Right-click the file and choose Merge. Click Yes
to confirm. Note that this REG file removes and re-creates "Terminal
Services" service entry in the registry.

If that does not help, check if the Event Log provides any information on
the Service startup failure.
