SYMPTOMS
When you restart your Microsoft Windows 2000 Server-based computer, you may find that the computer appears to stop responding (hang) and takes an unexpectedly long time, up to 30 minutes, to start.

When the computer starts, you may see Event ID 7001 error messages similar to the following in the System Event Log:

Event ID: 7001

Type: Error

Source: Service Control Manager

Category: None

Description: The  Service depends on the   service which failed to start because of the following error: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.



CAUSE
This behavior may occur if the Lexmark printer management program, Lexmark MarkVision, is installed on the computer, and the Lexbce Server service that is installed by the program prevents the Windows Server service from starting correctly. As a result, other Windows services that depend on the Server service do not start, and the computer may appear to stop responding (hang) at startup.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, remove the Lexmark MarkVision program from the computer and turn off the Lexbce Server service. For more information about how to do so, see the program documentation or contact Lexmark at the following Lexmark Web site:
