    Hello!! I want to retrieve the number of services (and their names) which are running in the system. I can do this with EnumServiceStatus() for OS NT-onwards. Can anyone please tell me how it can be done for Windows 98. I also want to get the DeviceDriver information. The same information which is got by, EnumDeviceDrivers() and GetDeviceDriverBaseName() apis for OS Win NT onwards. I want the same info for system with Win 98. i.e.. I want the dlls and the sys file (or vxds) which are loaded in the system with Windows 98 OS. Have a nice day Sandeep

      According to msdn: Windows 95/98/Me provides a scaled-down Service Control Manager: RegisterServiceProcess RunServices RunServicesOnce Services are stored under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion It should contain: MyApp1="myapp1.exe" MyApp2="myapp2.exe" param1 param2 MyApp3="c:\mydir\myapp3.exe" This is how You can retrieve number of services, and their names. The other problem, is whether those "services" are still running. Mukkie
