Hi

Which particular Service did you want to disable.  Some are needed by 
Windows for the system to run properly.  You can disable Services by typing

services.msc

from Start>Run.  Scroll down to the appropriate Service, right click it then 
select Stop.

Hello,

Thank you very much for your response.  The services I want to delete are 
the services related to the oracle database I installed and now I am unable 
to uninstall unfortunately.  Thank you very much again for your information.

Go to the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
and find in its sub keys "DisplayName" value like the name of service
you want to delete. Then delete sub key that contains that name.

1.Deleted Network Service and Local Service from Registry 

I mistakenly deleted registry keys for the Network Service (S-1-5-20) and the Local Service (S-1-5-19) from my computer. The Network and Local Service User Accounts still exist under Documents and Settings, but since the registry has been damaged, I receive error messages in the event viewer, e.g. can not load user profile for Network Service, or similarly Local Service User. Is there any way of repairing the registry short of a clean installation to fix this problem? I do not have a backup version from before the fateful event where I deleted these keys. Any  help would be greatly appreciated.

5.Deleting downloaded Service Pack 2?? 

Hi all, 

I have just recently downloaded the SP2 file to install on my computer from 
the Windows Updates section. Before installing I decided against it, 
especially after reading about all the problems, but even though I haven't 
installed it I would still have the original file somewhere on my system. Can 
anybody tell me what this supposedly "75MB" file(s) is/are, and where it 
is... so that I can completely remove it.

Thank you to anybody who can help me.

Cheers
