W2K SP4's Task Scheduler won't start because of "System error 1083
has occurred."
Sat, 21 Jun 2008 11:23:35 -0700
Hello.
I am having a problem with an old Dell Optiplex desktop that is using
old Windows 2000 SP4 (all critical updates). I noticed event logs say it
has problems starting Windows' Task Scheduler service. I can't turn it
on manually through GUI and command line. Here is what I saw in cmd.exe:

She said her system tray icons all disappeared except for sound and clock.
Spent 3 hours on phone with Dell Tech, and now even less is working.
My first bootup brought me to des ...

We have a "default" printer created (Lexmark) which works properly from
Windows applications. The printer is connected via the parallel port LPT1.
We have one legacy DOS application that works properly, but the print

machine room, and can run for w ...

recover my system?
