Event ID 7001 Service Control Manager causing slow logon
Hi guys! hoping for some pointing in the right direction here with an intermittent issue.
I use a Dell XPS17 with W7 Ultimate for work (which entails visiting various clients and login on to their networks via mapped drives (don't know if that is relevant to issue)).
Anyhow, some days on starting up the laptop, after I login to my profile, it hangs with a black screen for times between five and fifteen minutes or until I force a hard shut down (other days it starts up fine albeit slower than I would like!).
The days that this happens the Event viewer Administrative Events will show maybe 5,000 lines of
Event ID 7001 "The Computer Browser service depends on the Server service which failed to start because of the following error: The dependency service or group failed to start"
Log Name: System, Source: Service Control Manager.
Likes its continually attempting this same task until it gets a result or gives up..
Searches I have done regarding this issue return so many results (unrelated to my circumstances) I am struggling to see were to go to try and resolve it.
I appreciate this is a brief description of the issue but as I don't know what it is I don't know what is relevant to tell you..
My IT knowledge is pretty basic.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
