I believe I have lanmanserver issues

[fsantiago]

Good morning everyone!! I recently came across a laptop that works perfectly fine but takes a while to do so. The problem is the wireless takes a really long time to connect initially after the boot process. I have done a boot trace and have attached the summary. I really think it has to do with lanmanserver. Can someone please guide me in the right direction. Any help will be greatly appreciated.summary_boot.xml

Yes, looks so:

 <serviceTransition name="LanmanServer" group="" transition="start" totalTransitionTimeDelta="9223371995915"

this is the service which is used to share files and printers. You can set the serve to start "manual", create a small batch file (net start LanmanServer) and run it on demand if you need the sharing feature.

Is it the Server service? If so I have set it to manual and the problem still continues. I have idea on what else I could do.

[MagicAndre1981]

yes, this is the server service.

Make a new trace where you set the service to manual, zip the trace and upload it. I'll take a look at it.

[fsantiago]

Ok will do. Setting it to disabled does work though. I will post the trace in a bit.

Here is the skydrive link to the trace. I can't upload because Ionly have 500k. I appreciate your help.

why have you disabled Superfetch? Your Western Digital Scorpio Blue 250GB HDD only has 5400 RPM. Disabling Superfetch dramatically SLOWS DOWN YOUR WINDOWS AND BOOT! Activate it again, install the hotfixes from here:

and run the optimization from here:

After you did this make a new trace.

To my knowledge I have not disabled suprfecth. I will do as told. Thank you.

[fsantiago]

Ok. Here is the problem I am running into. When I try to start the service which is set to automatic. It says windows could not start the Superfetch service on Local Computer. Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.

[MagicAndre1981]

make sure the values "EnableSuperfetch" and "EnablePrefetcher" in the registry are set to 3.

[fsantiago]

Yes they are both set to 3.

[MagicAndre1981]

run sfc /Scannow to detect missing and broken files. Maybe the sysmain.dll is corrupt.

[fsantiago]

Ok. Will let you know what the results are.

[fsantiago]

It do not find any integrity violations.

[MagicAndre1981]

do you have a file called sysmain.dll in the system32 folder?
