Marthax Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Hi Guys!When I created my registry tweak file, I didn't think I'd be using Sisoft Sandra one day, and so I included a tweak that disables a service which Sandra depends on. The problem is though that I can't remember which one it was. I've googled around for it with no luck. I'm sure I've read it somewhere, but I can't seem to remember. Can anyone help me out here?Oh, I'm getting an "Sandra.exe - application error" message.Thanks in advance!Marthax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Could you post your system services list (disabled or non-running services) - that'll help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marthax Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 Of course, here it goes.I didn't know a better way of posting them than by using screens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLXX Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Do you really find it that difficult to look through the list of services and use your common sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I honestly can't see why you would have trouble starting the Sandra services unless they have dependencies on one (or more) of the disabled services. However, since Sandra is a performance tool, perhaps setting the Performance logs and alerts service back to manual will help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marthax Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 @LLXX: What's your point? Those services are set to manual which means that they will be enabled when needed and I have not touched them since I tampered with my services when I didn't have Sandra.@cluberti: Set to manual, but not difference. It shouldn't either. Performance and Logs is a completely different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that some apps don't start the service themselves if they're not started and set to Manual, they just wait and timeout because the service was never started in the first place.

Marthax Posted November 23, 2006 Author Share Posted November 23, 2006 I try starting them, but they deny the startup. I've changed them to automatic, but that yields the same message.Could it be that my Windows got screwed up somehow? Is there some other way to solve this besides reinstalling Windows?

cluberti Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 At this point, I'm not really certain as to what could be causing it (nothing seems to jump out as the culprit other than performance logs and alerts, and that's just a stab in the dark). Perhaps at this point using Process Monitor from sysinternals to see if we get any access denied messages from the filesystem or in the registry, or perhaps installing the Userdump application from Microsoft to gather a dump of Sandra crashing - I honestly can't think of anything else, as I'm not a big Sandra user.

Marthax Posted November 26, 2006 Author Share Posted November 26, 2006 Hm..since I'm reinstalling my Windows anyway within short, I might just aswell apply the reg tweaks piece by piece to see what part screw it up because I'm sure that one of them caused it. I'll post back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
