    lost- mad,

    The procedure given here for Windows 2000 should also work for Windows XP. To start and stop the task scheduler service go to Start|Control Panel|Administrative Tools|Services. Scroll down to Task Scheduler. Click to select it. There will be links at the upper left of the window that opens which you can use to stop, then start, the service.
