Hi, You are very welcome! I hope it does indeed solve your problem. Kind Regards :D

Hi, You're very welcome! I'm glad the solution helped you. ;) Kind Regards.

Hey! You're very welcome! I was so happy to finally solve this problem and I'm chuffed it helped you out too. So tough to narrow down the cause of a problem like this and then it turns out to be one little setting! Kind Regards :cool:

Setting Cryptographic Services to Automatic has definitely solved this problem! Yay! :up: Kind Regards :D

Thanks, I have now set these services to Automatic Startup. Kind Regards. :D

Hi, I posted this in the thread I started about the same problem, but I may have found an answer, so I'll post it here too. I compared the list of Services when the Troubleshooter is not working to the the list when it is working and there were only 2 changes. Here were the results: When the...

Hi! Ok, so here's a development. I compared the list of Services when the Troubleshooter is not working to the the list when it is working and there were only 2 changes. Here were the results: When the Troubleshooter is working: Background Intelligent Transfer Service Stopped Cryptographic...

Hi, I don't mind doing that, but I feel there are too many variables. I have a 2-year old Sony Vaio CW series laptop that had Windows 7 64-bit pre-installed. I am sure the troubleshooter has never worked properly, which makes me think it is some sort of conflict. Out of the box, this laptop...

Hi again! Ok, so I turned off the 'Computer Maintenance' under Troubleshooting/Change Settings and the Troubleshooting application immediately worked! I restarted my computer - and it came up with the error as usual. :frown: Strangely, I turned the 'Computer Maintenance' setting back on and...

Thanks! I'm still looking for answers too. I'm trying to find out what that error code might mean - it seems to relate to licensing. I'll let you know if I discover anything. Kind Regards. :)

I think you may be onto something. The troubleshooter started working again (on its own!) and I checked out the status of Diagnostic System Host and it is listed as 'stopped'. From the System Configuration/Services list (reached by typing 'msconfig' into the start menu search box) I can stop...

Hey again :D The Diagnostic System Host was running and everything (including the other services) looks identical to your attachment. It does show as having a 'manual' start but as far as I can tell it runs automatically on startup. I disabled it in System Configuration/Services and restarted...

Thanks for your reply! I tried opening the DiagPackage file in the directory folder and received the same error. These are all listed as 'running'. I tried this and received the same error. I have noticed something very strange. When I read your previous post I tried the Windows...

Hi, Thanks for your reply. My Internet connection dropped out briefly and I just wanted to run the Windows Network Diagnostics to help me figure out where the problem was. It turned out to be the Internet Provider, but I found it extremely annoying that I couldn't use the diagnostic tool and...

Hi, If anyone is interested, I solved this problem with my Sony Vaio myself. A program called 'Vaio Event Service', which enables 'hot keys' and displays on-screen cues for volume and brightness control, conflicted with Windows Media Player 12's Video Settings. If 'Vaio Event Service' is turned...
