a few weeks ago I posted a 3 of queries for help. One was answered only a few days later.
here is the problem: I disabled "workstation" in the services program. It then of course disabled all the programs that were dependant on it, along with all the programs that were dependant on them one of wich is my modem, I have tried several times to click on "properties" to try and re-enable them but the properties sheet does not come up. can any one come up with an alternative to wiping my laptop clean and starting over

And this was the reply-Go to Start > Run and type: MSCONFIG , and hit enter
Under the General tab, check "Normal Startup - load all device drivers and services"
click "apply" and reboot

I of course followed the instructions and when it came to click "apply" that option was not available

I asked for further help but got no reply, I am now ---a month later--- asking for help again. Isn't there any one out there that can help
 
also I have tried the other trouble shooting methods that were in MSCONFIG such as Enable all before I ever came to the news groups I am looking for another way around that because MSCONFIG is not letting me
 
Press F8 while booting and select Last good known configuration and see if that fixes the problem.
 
Hi love_lei,

If you have Windows XP Pro, try going to Start > Run > gpedit.msc
and check all policies related to msconfig.

Also try going to the command prompt (Start > Run > cmd) and type
net start workstation

Good luck
