"Automatic" services sometimes don't start automatically, do start manually
PC runs XP SP3 and all other updates on a Lan. Totally unpredictably,
after a reboot there will about be a dozen services set to automatic that fail to start. Most but not all are network related. I am kicking myself for not making a list the last time it happened.... They can all be started manually with no problems whatsoever. I have run all sorts of virus and rootkit scans and turned up nothing, and the PC has never been infected to my knowledge. There are no known hardware problems. I have read that this happens when there is a problem with the NIC, but it does not happen if the NIC is uninstalled, disabled or turned off in the BIOS. I am about ready to make a batch file to "net start" everything, but man, what a pathetic work-around that would be! Thanks in advance, Don

Thanks in advance, Don Is it possible that you have a dependency problem (or lack thereof)? Certain services cannot start before other services start. Coincidently, most of these are network services. Checkout the following article and the "Dependency" tab in the Services window to make sure that your startup dependencies are set up correctly.
