1. Backup System Services
To do backup before the setting and management of server system is very important. If any incidents happens, it can be recovered as the original. Here, we would like to talk about registry and services.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServices.

2. Disaster protection

Due to unintentional operation, or delete any important service carelessly, the system can not boot properly. So you can not reboot the concerned services. And it shall form a vicious circle. In this condition, we can only recover the control platform by hand. In the system control pad, we can boot any service or control the boot type of services.

Put the Windows XP installation CD into CD-POM, and set the CD-ROM with priority in the BIOS. Boot the computer and log onto the welcome interface and press R to enter the Windows XP error recovery control pad. Select the wanted system and enter the Admin password. .

In the stage of CMD, we should use Enable and Disable commands. Of which, the Enable commands should be "enable [service_name] [startup_type]", the Disable commands should be "disable [service_name]". Here, the [service_name] is the service or device you would like to start or disable. [startup_type] means the start types of the services. Here the services types include: ervice_disabled, Service_boot_start, Service_system_start, Service_auto_start, Service_demand_start and so on.

Following is on how to disable the Help in Windows XP. First, we set the start up of this service as "disabled", then restart it.

(1) Enter the error recovery control pad, run the "listsvc" to check the status of services. Here, we can see the system help is enabled, here we input "disable helpsvc" and enter, the help svc is disabled.

(2) if we want to use this service again, and make it start with system, input "enable helpsvc service_boot_start" and enter.
