What does the event log say? It should give you a reason.

What error you are getting when you try to start them..?
Check netlogon service is in started state or not.

netlogon is running.

Microsoft exchange management is also running. all other exchange services are not starting.

I am also unable to run (they does not run at all) Server Manger and IE.

I have used devcon to remove some ghost network interfaces.

Also, some background:

Following a number of failed full data restores, we restored system state; then exchange folders and Microsoft Small business server folder on the C: drive.

Do you know if there is anything inside the windows directory that we need to restore?

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

thank you
