Unable to start W32Time service in Windows Server 2008 R2 ?

People,

All in a sudden that I see, the time from my Physical box Windows Server 2008R2 is drifting 3-4 minutes, so I tried to restart the time service, but somehow it is having this error:

---------------------------
Services
---------------------------
Windows could not start the Windows Time service on Local Computer.

Error 1290: The service start failed since one or more services in the same process have an incompatible service SID type setting. A service with restricted service SID type can only coexist in the same process with other services with a restricted SID type. If the service SID type for this service was just configured, the hosting process must be restarted in order to start this service.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

Why is that happening ?

This is the script that I run as Administrator but still failed:

net stop w32time
w32tm /unregister
w32tm /register
net start w32time

w32tm /config /syncfromflags:domhier /update
w32tm /resync /rediscover
net stop w32time
net start w32time

pause

Open in new window

this is the error message:

C:\Windows\system32>net stop w32time
The Windows Time service is not started.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3521.

C:\Windows\system32>w32tm /unregister
The following error occurred: Access is denied. (0x80070005)

C:\Windows\system32>w32tm /register
The following error occurred: The specified service has been marked for deletion. (0x80070430)

C:\Windows\system32>net start w32time

The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.
