RPC hung on starting

I am getting a message in the Event viewer that state that the RPC service hung on starting. I checked out Microsoft's site they say something about uninstalling the Novell Client but I don't have it installed. Because the RPC isn't' starting other services like DHCP and TCP/IP printing isn't either. This all the information I get from the Event viewer. I am open to any ideas on what could be the problem.
