Service control manager

[Guest]

Everytime I start my win2000 server pc it shows an error message saying
"At least one service or driver failed during system startup. Use Event
Viewer to examine the event log for details."
In the event viewer what ican see is
Source: Application pop up Category: None
Event ID: 26 Type: Information
Application popup: Service Control Manager : At least one service or driver
failed during system startup. Use Event Viewer to examine the event log for
details.

Can someone tell me what's causing this problem?

in device manager is there any failed devices? Also take a look in Services
and see if any that are set to automatic have failed to start

Hi,
apart from what steve suggest have you seen Application Event & System
Event !
Is their any service configure / schedule to run as a job with OS startup
and need some authentication which fails !? or any hardware device !

Best Regards

Hi,
I've checked device manager,there are no failed devices.
I even checked Application log & system log but I can't find any services
configured to run at startup.
In services all the services that are set to automatic are started.

Open a CMD prompt and type

set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1

press enter

then in Device Manager select View> tick Show Hidden Devices

and look again

Hi Steve,
I did what you said.In hidden devices I could see a device naming "bulk usb"
with yellow exclamation mark.I removed it but the problem is still
there.Any other solutions please.

removing it will not solve the problem because the device will be redetected
at the next boot up. What you need to do is find what device is being
referred to and install the correct drivers so that the shriek (exclamation
mark) goes away.
