if you have vista installed in your pc mate the best advice i can give you is reformat your pc and install xp vista as been released far too early with too many known bugs in the op system as far as i am aware there are no patches avaiable yet

Go up one meant go to the var directory .
Service.xml files go in the /var/tuxbox/config/zapit directory
