Sick and tired of this message!

As a second example to 40Hz's addendum: I frequently see Veritas/now Symantec BackupExec causing NLB (Network Load Balancing) service startup failures errors, because it automatically references the NLB service even if it's not installed/used/available.

If you can get and post the specifics, maybe we can help you out.

What specifics? Screenshots of event viewer?

That's a good place to start - at least then we can see the surrounding events leading up to the service failure. Also knowing what (or which) service(s) is/are failing would be helpful.

^Yup! What SJ said! :Thmbsup:
We'd need some of the details in the log. Specifically what failed and what the message(s) said about it. Also which log reported the error: system/applications/security etc. Might want to check them all while you're in there. Anything that occured around when you started having problems is potentially useful info for troubleshooting.
If you're new to using the Event Viewer or analysing log files here's a very good article to get you started. My GF (who is very smart - but definitely not what you'd call a "computer person") successfully solved her first major W2k3 server problem (all by herself - Yay!) by starting with the advice in this article.
