f course I will do all those things, but do you want me to do it
on a "New clone just like my Master" or do you want me to do it on the
"Considerable altered clone which is right now in the condition
that a lot of services have been changed, but it *does* hibernate
after 2 hours?

Disabled......but let me add that my system, the one I test with,

Okay, John, I did it pretty well, but with limitations.
File autorunsc.exe said it unzipped but I couldn't find it.
I did the unzipping all in one directory and I found the
autorun.exe but not its command version. So I executed the
one I found and maybe what I'll send below is what you were
after.

The file services.txt saved but is EMPTY except for a header line.
I'll go back and do that again.

Service Name,Start Mode <<<<<<<That's all that the run collected.

But let me expand about services.txt ....

In the process of doing that on the clone, it gave an error pane:
"Remote Server machine does not exist or is unavailable.
