Many of the winxp services such as "plug and play" seem to have been
deleted, i.e., under services under computer management, i see only
about 15 services and all are Nero, Office, Canon camera etc - I dont
see standard xp services such as plug and play. As a result I am
having a lot of problems (my device manager, netwrok connections etc
are all empty, the audio doesnt work - sound card isnt getting
recognized etc.) For example, msinfo32.exe says "Can't collect
information" for all the devices.
How can I fix this?
I am not sure about the exact source of the problem - my brother was
using my system and it seems he manually registered a dll file
(ole.dll or something) since mcafee auto update wasnt working. (mcafee
is working fine now though) - he mentioned that he had to reboot the
system after which windows defender or something said that some of the
services will have to be deleted.
