I continually get DCOM errors at start up. There are eight events in my last
boot up. They seem to be the same. I copied the trail of info here. I
follow the instructions to change the launch and activation permissions but I
get lost when I open the DCOM configuration in Administrative tools because I
can’t figure out the “friendly nameâ€. Could someone please help me resolve
this issue?
My system is as follows:
