I experienced the same problem as some others here (pounding my head on the table
through the night), I could not find the CSConfigFlags key, nor could I make changes
to my registry. Working at Microsoft I contacted the RPC and SCM developers, and
was able to obtain a workaround that solves this issue.
If you can boot into Windows (regular or safe-mode), open a command window (windows
key + run, type cmd.exe) and type the following text:
reg.exe delete "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\Current\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\ROOT\LEGACY_RPCSS\0000"
/v CsConfigFlags
You may also be able to use the recovery console to edit the above key manually (note
it is different than the key previously mentioned in this thread).
Please don't send me hate mail regarding the RPC problem, I am as frustrated as all
of you are :-(.
Good luck everyone!
