    At least one service or driver failed during system startup
    « on: December 08, 2009, 04:09:30 AM »
    Hi

    I have got domain environment (AD win2003 server) under Event Viewer (Application and System and DNS Server) I have got couple of Event IDs.

    I know that Google is our friend but I got confused which Event IDs should I examine

    The error message that I have been experiencing is the snapshot below

    At least one service or driver failed during system startup. Use Event Viewer to examine the event log for details.

    I have got lengthy Event Viewer (Specially for Applications and System but not DNS Server) therefore I did not post them

    Thanks

      I get those messages on sql servers and domain controllers when I reboot them. It never really amounts to anything on my servers. What service does it say is not starting up?

      You get those when a service ran out of time to start. It happens a lot with helper services not starting in time when the machine is booting.

      Just go though the list of your services and manually start the one that didn't start.
