Logical Disk Manager Admin Service depends on Logical Disk Manager service
being started in order for it to start.
Check your Windows/System32 folder for a file named dmserver.dll
There is also a registry entry for the Logical Disk Manager service, but I
am not currently at my WINXP computer in order to check what is in the
registry entry, am at the 2K computer at work where I can't muck around in
the registry :-(
