Re: Big Problem with workgroup/share and registry????

Hi
There is no way to say which are being lost at those times as they are
too numerous. Its just like a total reset is needed so I am afraid I
cant answer which services.
When I boot up my laptop its fine . That message has only ever happened
twice and no nothing changes on the pc when that message pops up. I
have a big feeling this could be user related? I may be totally wrong
in my naivety. Someone tried to give me remote assistance once with a
problem I was having with powerpoint and when I had enabled remote
assistance etc he said "I thought you said you were online"? Apparently
my pc showed up to him that I wasn't on the internet!! Doh!
I really dont know what to try next. Can you tell me for a start what
exactly MUST be automatic in services for pc and laptop for all this to
work? Maybe I have something set to manual when it needs to load up at
boot?
Thanks
Malady
