Re: Removing a Service!

It's actually a Command Prompt window you're referring to, not
a DOS window. DOS is an operating system, and there is no room
for it under WinXP.

Instead of running sc.exe from the Run box, run it in a proper
Command Prompt so that you can see what's going on. To
start a Command Prompt, run cmd.exe from the Run box.
You can then run sc /? to see all the options.
