I believe I have lanmanserver issues

run process monitor to see what takes so long to open services.msc. If you're unsure, save the trace as PML, compress it and upload it to your SkyDrive.

Ok I also took a pic with my phone since paint doesnt open right away and I cant screen print. This is what happens when I open services. It stays like that for a while.

this is the old PML. I would like to see the new PML with the data when you try to start the services.msc.

[fsantiago]

Oh my. Sorry I linked the wrong one. Here it is.

Services Log

[MagicAndre1981]

update the Mobile Intel® 965 Express drivers:

Maybe this this helps to show the MMC faster because the log shows some DWrite activaties during the gap:

Also try to uninstall IE9 and go to IE8. Does this help?

Also please look in the action center/reliable history, the LANmgr hang was detected by the Error reporting service. Look at the details of the entry. Do you get logs or hang dumps?

[fsantiago]

WIll do that. I checked the reliable history but see no lanmgr reports. I also made the changed you requested but the issue still occurs.

currently I have no idea.

[fsantiago]

LOL I know this problem is weird. Do you think it might be a registry issue like I said before with the lanman?

The one of this version of windows 7 has display name "DisplayName"="@%systemroot%\\system32\\srvsvc.dll,-100" on the laptop it simply just says "Server"

[MagicAndre1981]

The Displayname is also "@%systemroot%\system32\srvsvc.dll,-100" on my Windows 7.

[fsantiago]

Yea on my working version on windows 7 it is like that. But on the laptop with the boot issues it simply just says "Server" for display name. Can this be the problem?

[GrofLuigi]

Can this be the problem?

Pardon me for barging in, but I know the answer (kind of). It's MUI (multilingual user interface). The idea is, the displayed name of the Server service isn't stored as string, but as a pointer to the string inside the dll file (in this example, the 100th string or resouce inside srvsvc.dll). If you install another interface language of windows, the 100th string will contain the displayed name in another language. If you find the 100th resource in srvsvc.dll with I don't know, Resouce Hacker maybe, it will contain the displayed name (probably Server Service?).

Windows caches some of these resolved strings (search for MUICache in registry; there are several places in Win7, but I'm on XP currently and that's the only place there (per user), while on 7 there are more).

Now, I've seen Windows 7 replace these pointers with absolute strings, but I don't know under which circumstances that happens. Maybe if you play around Regional Options or when Windows Modules Installer (trusted installer) is started. That's how I discovered this effect, while tracing installations of programs with Total Uninstall. I could see nearly in realtime how they were replaced.

To cut the long story short, I don't think this "effect" is responsible for your problems. These are only strings anyway, expanded or not.

So I searched my problem on google which I had done before and came across an answer for the issue. The link is http://www.vistax64.com/general-discussion/211979-vista-hangs-20-minutes-lanmanserver-starting.html. Weird because I had searched for this issue before. So yes now everything works like its suppose to. Thanks for your time and patience!!

fixed link

So you were able to fix your issue by editing the registry as described? And does your Print Spooler function correctly?

Cheers and Regards
