Windows 7: System service issues.

Hi can anyone advise me on the following issues currently being experienced on my system:

event viewer not running. Cant Re-Start it in the Admin tools\System services settings for my device

Are you talking about "Windows Event Log" service, or "Windows Event Collector" service?

Why restart the services.... is it already running?

hi mate. Thanks for your responce. Both are not running. I am unable to restart the services.

Very odd thou as have certainly not modified any settings to make them stop in the first instance..

What error message do you get when you try to start "Windows Event Log"-service?

Windows Event Collector service and Task Scheduler service aren't running because they depend on "Windows Event Log"-service

When running event viewer as administrator. Upon the event viewer window opening . The error message received is Event Viewer un-available. Verify the service is running.

If I then go into System Services then click on the event viewer service and try to start it up, I get "Windows could not start the event collector service on local computer.

Error 1079: The account specified for this service is different is from the account of other process being used for other services running in the same process.

It looks like you try to start "Windows Event Collector" service
But I asked you start "Windows Event Log"

Which one of the 2 doesn't start? Which error?

Service "printer spooler" is running?

run this fixit please Services fail to start and you receive an Error 1079 on a computer that is running Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows 2008 R2 or Windows 7
Solved?
