  • Hi,

    I am having the same issue with my sql server, but nobody has answered the topic, did you solve this problem?

  • Same here -- SQL 2000 EE SP4, Windows 2003 EE SP2. Suggestions are most welcome.

  • As per

    http://www.winserverkb.com/Uwe/Forum.aspx/windows-server-sbs/35736/6-SetServiceStatus

    Generally speaking, the event 4101 should be related with third party

    software or hardware. In order to solve such issue, we may need further get

    more information for further trouble shooting.

    1. Please also check your event log to see if there are any DCOM errors?

    2. If possible, could you check if you have installed any third party

    software on your SBS 2003? Please temporally stop it to see if the problem can be resolved or not?

    3. Please also make a clean reboot of your SBS server to see if the event 4101 can be cleared? You can refer to my suggestion below to make a clean reboot:

    A. Click Start->Run!-->type msconfig and press Enter

    B. Click Services tab and select Hide All Microsoft Services and Disable All third party Services.

    C. Click Startup tab and Disable All startup items

    D. Click OK and choose Restart

    E. After reboot, check whether the problem still occurs
