I have a fresh install of Windows XP.
My problem is that every time I start it up, I have to go into Administrative Tools and start the needed services, such as DCOM, RTP, DHCP, etc. The only services that start automatically are:
- plug and play
- remote procedure
- server
- windows audio
- workstation
All of the rest have to be started manually, in spite of the fact that they're listed as automatic
startup. Why won't they start on their own, like they should?
What do the system and application event logs show? Any errors relating to those services starting? – Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 – 2010-03-09T19:48:36.020
those services are among the services which do not start. – Mala – 2010-03-09T20:16:41.073
Have you tried safe mode? (The Event log service and a few others should auto start in safe mode as well). Perhaps try system restore to go back to JUST after the XP install was finished and see how they act? – Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 – 2010-03-09T21:28:07.113
