My computer froze suddenly, and when I restarted it, a bunch of services were disabled. I need to know which services need to be re-enabled.

The Themes and DHCP services were re-enabled, and right now, my computer does not automatically recognize disks I put into my disk drive (No autoplay, etc, but if I double click on the drive icon, it takes me into the disk.) and it doesn't display the list of the most frequently used programs in the start menu. There may be more, but that's all I can find so far.
I'm using XP Pro.
Services stopped

Bump
I'm really annoyed by this. When I insert a DVD, the drive icon doesn't change, and when I right click on the drive, and no autoplay pops up. There used to be an option when I right clicked on the DVD icon that said play, but now there's not. It's really annoying having to go find my media player, start it up, and tell it that there's a movie dvd in the drive.
Also, I found out that if there's a disk in the drive when I start up the computer, it recognizes that, but when I remove the disk, windows still thinks it in there. This may not be related to services. (I think I remember seeing an option somewhere that does that, but I can't remember where that option is)

Everything else is Disabled. I've gone through my services several times in the past and disabled ones I don't need running.
If you don't have some of these, don't worry; they do differ depending on what we have installed. I removed stuff I KNOW is not part of a default XP install. It should get your core Windows install working again, though.
