[Guest]

My computer runs very slow and and has recently started to crash alot........I checked on Help and Support on my system and have got the following messages a number of times...

DCOM got error "%1075" attempting to start the service BITS with arguments "" in order to run the server: {4991D34B-80A1-4291-8 3B6-3328366B9097}

The Background Intelligent Transfer Service service depends on the following nonexistent service: LanmanWorkstation

The IPSEC Services service terminated with the following error: The authentication service is unknown.

Help!!!!

The error message from BITS service is due to the dependency of BITS
service on lanmanworkstation service which has been removed.

BITS service dependency on MS Client networks can be removed.
microsoft.public.windows.backgroundtransfer should have more details
about that.

From a previous post in the newsgroup

The problem on your machine is that you have uninstalled "Client for
microsoft networks" component and hence lanmanworkstation service
doesnt
exist.
To resolve the problem, Either you can re-install the "Client for
microsoft
networks" component or remove the dependency from BITS Service, and
then
enable the BITS service.

Reinstalling "Client for Microsoft Networks" networking component:
* Select Start -> Settings -> Control Panel
* Double-click "Network and Internet Connections" and then "Network
Connections"
* Here you should see "Local Area Connection" icon
* Right-click on that icon and select "Properties". "Local Area
Connection
properties" dialog pops up
* In the dialog box that opens
* Select Install. "Select Network Component Type" dialog pops up
* Select Client and click Add
* Select "Client for Microsoft Networks" and press OK (the
installation
may prompt for Windows XP CD)
* select "cancel" in "Select Network Component Type" dialog
* Click Close in "Local Area Connection properties" dialog

Removing the BITS service dependency on lanmanworkstation
The dependency of 'lanmanworkstation' on BITS can be removed by
the
following sc.exe commands.
The dependency list is different for Windows 2000 and Windows XP. The
modification can be done by the following commands.
sc.exe is available in resource kit for Windows 2000. It is already
available in Windows XP Pro.
On Windows XP, run the command from the command prompt
sc config bits depend= RpcSs
On Windows 2000, run the command from the command prompt
sc config bits depend= RpcSs/Sens/WMI
