Default Something similar to services.msc on ME?

I was working with an OP at TechGuy who was having problems with his ME, and
NetFramework 1.1, Windows Installer and IE6.0. Managed to help him get
things going.
He had checked that Installer was installed by finding mis.dll, but wanted
to know if there was something in ME like services.msc in XP to check if it
was started.

Since I don't know the answer, I am going to pass the question on to you.

How can you tell if services are running in ME? How do you start/stop them.

WinME is a Win9x based OS, not a NT based OS and therefore there are no NT Services.

Did some more checking. if anyone is interested.

Windows Installer is installed on 8x machines. Do not know if it is NT based
or not.It is normally stopped until an installation program turns it on.
Since there is no Services list as in XP and Vista, to see if it is there
and working,
RUN msiexec, a popup should appear stating no parameter.

running MSIEXEC simply starts the program running - and since there is no
instruction as to what data it is supposed to use to do an install it will
complain. THERE IS NO INSTALLER SERVICE IN WIN 9x SYSTEMS. The installer
(msiexec.exe) is called as required by an installation program according to
the registry entry for the installer.
