I tried to configure the Windows Services using Group Policys.

Now when I start the PC with the configured GPO there are many red crosses in the Event Log and the PC slows down. No other Policy settings are set, so I think its a problem with configuring this services.
Before I made the Policy definition, I set the Services by hand to my needs to test if there are any problems. After that, I set the Services in the Group Policy like I configured they by hand.
For help me resolving this Problem, I put the EventLog and the Policy settings on my Server:
Application EventLog
System EventLog
GPO definitions

Please help =)
Thanks a lot...

Which services are we talking about?

I hope you find this post helpful. Please let me know if it was.

Regards,

Mark
 
You posted the app log twice (no system log).

What type of machine is this? A server? Workstation? Domain controller? What?

What exactly is the problem? Red x's and "the PC slows down" is not very helpful in diagnosing the problem.
 
What kind of error messages are you getting. Post the type of error message and the number so we can chase down the solution. Good luck.

Hello

@markdmac:
We are talking about the Windows Services like "Automatic Updates" or "Event Log".

@mlichstein:
I'm sorry, I fixed this.
Application EventLog
System EventLog

It is an IBM Thinkpad T42 Laptop and is used as a normal Workstation with Windows XP Professional SP2.
The exact problem is difficult to describe, I'll give another try: When I apply the GPO then many Services will fail to start or are always starting (status). In the Eventlog are many errors. When I remove the GPO from this Computer, no more errors are in the Event Log.
Here is a list of this errors:

@GlenJohnson:
See the answer to mlichstein.

I'm assuming this machine is a member of a domain? If so, you need to change the startup type for the Netlogon service to automatic.
 
Yes, this PC is a domain-member.
I changed the service from manual (windows default) to automatic, but no success =(

Did you reboot after starting the netlogon service?

Why are you restricting all of these services anyway? You're likely restricting a service that other services depend on.
 
Yes I did reboot. Many times, but no success.

I checked the dependencies many times, but I found no problem with that.
My goal is to diable all not needed windows services for a normal workstation who is a member of a windows 2000 domain.
Do you have experience in doing this? Probably you already made this before?
