The remote proceedure call (rpc) has been disabled. System os is Win xp Pro. I can't get the properties box to open and many other sevices will not open because they are tied to rpc. Is there dos language i can use in the prompt box to enable this service?

You need to start the computer using the Recovery Console (either from the XP CD or by hitting F8 during boot-up if the Recovery Console has been installed on the computer). You can then use the "enable" command to start a system service.

This cannot be done from a command prompt during a standard Windows session.
