I'd be pretty surprised if it really wasn't there on the working machines.
Check the spelling and make sure you look in the correct directory if you
have XP installed somewhere else. Or you can use the %windir% variable.
C:>dir %windir%\system32\wkssvc.dll
Volume in drive C has no label.
Directory of C:\WINDOWS\system32
