Still running Windows NT Server with SP6A. I am getting a "service or driver failed during startup" message but there is NO event log entry defining the error. Is there any other way to find what is failing?

Look at the services icon in control panel and see if any services are set for automatic that are not starting. Also look at the device icon and see if any devices are set to autostart and are not running.

Good Luck!
