My windows XP does not start up correctly. The start
button and taskbar do not show up after reboot. The RPC
service did not start causing other services not to
start. How do I get RPC to start?
 
Hi Tim,
I was provided this workaround by the RPC and SCM
developers here at Microsoft, and have tested it on
several machines.

If you can boot into Windows (regular or safe-mode), open
a command window (windows
key + r, type cmd.exe) and type the following text:

reg.exe delete "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware
Profiles\Current\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\ROOT\LEGACY
_RPCSS\0000"
/v CsConfigFlags

You may also be able to use the recovery console to edit
the above key manually.

Good luck!
