Why isnt my help and support or my search working on windows xp?

[shannenon]

My help and support isnt working either is my search on windows ep...it wont let me log on to email or play games...page will load up and thats all.

Need computer info in order to try & help:
In meantime:  First you should check that the help and support service is running ,to do this first click on start then click on run, In the run dialog box type in" services.msc "

In the window that opens up scroll down until you see "help and support" then check the status to see if it is active. If it says disabled double click on help and support listing and from the dialog box that pops up select automatic for the start up type and then click on apply.click on the start button on the same dialog box to start help and support then click on OK.See if help and support comes up when you try to start it. If that fails check out the following two sites and please list computer info.
