The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Event ID 7001, Error 1068 "The dependency service or group faild to start" - Spooler Service will not start (either manually or automatically) - NT4.0 SP6A

Asked by ricwert in Windows NT Operating System

Tags: error, 1068, 7001, event

Good Day!

This particular workstation is exhibiting these errors and I cannot get the spooler to start, therefore all workstation printing functions are inoperative.

Here are the streps I have taken (in order) so far:

1. Tried to start the SPOOL service manually - failed with Error 1068.

2. Re-installed SP6A - no change in status.

3. Copied files SPOOLSS.DLL, SPOOLSS.EXE AND (WINSPOOL.DRV AND WINSPOOL.EXE - one of these latter could not be replaced because it was active and I was not sure how to stop/restart it). No Change in problem status.

4. Got desparate and copied same files from NT4.0 SP6A CD to hard drive - Still no change.

Extremely frustrated now as felt I may have missed something. Much less the ccause of this strange anomaly.

Please advise as quickly as possible.

Thanks.
