HELP!! EventLog service is missing!!

[Osiris]

I'm trying to help as much as I can.....

C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe Do you have that file?

That file belongs to event viewer

Enables event log messages issued by Windows-based programs and components to be viewed in Event Viewer. This service cannot be stopped.

there is the file from my machine

put it in the directory above and let me know what happens



reboot

cant overwrite!

I am unable to overwrite the file as it says that the file is currently in use.

When i go to services.exe via task manager i get that i cant close the task since its critical for the system.

[Osiris]

did you uninstal diskkeeper yet?

 

[doxavita]

yes, i had installed it, but then it stopped working for some reason, so i uninstalled it, and now i cant install it back ....

 

[Osiris]

im not sure what else to do desides a repair which you did, a clean instal or boot from a erd and try replacing the file

 

[killians45]

did you try to just goto start/run and type in eventvwr (note, its EVENTVWR and NOT eventviewer).

 

[doxavita]

i tried it and it does open the event viewer, but when i go to say system or application i get that the interface is unknown and cant go any further, i beleive this is due to the absence of eventlog service.
