XP Service stopping

Hi

I have a strange problem with my laptop, when it starts, my wireless PCMCIA card works ok and can connect to the Internet, I checked the Service Wireless Zero Configuration is Started in Automatic, after a while it the laptop looses connection, I checked Wireless Zero Configuration and is NOT running with status Stopped but still in Automatic.

After that if I restart the Wireless Zero Connection stays on for the rest of the day. Any ideas?

Thanks

Check the system and application event logs to see if there's any reason why it stops.

Start > Run > "compmgmt.msc" > System Tools > Event Viewer

Did as you recommended belowthe log found under "Application" the only warning is listed below.

The rest of them listed in the events they are as Information.

Description:
Windows saved user 2K\Administrator registry while an application or service was still using the registry during log off. The memory used by the user's registry has not been freed. The registry will be unloaded when it is no longer in use.

This is often caused by services running as a user account, try configuring the services to run in either the LocalService or NetworkService account.

what account is the wireless zero configuration using to start up?

Hi

I only have 1 account that's the Administrator. No other accounts setup.

if you have 3rd party software set up on it ie intel/dell/broadcom etc...
go into the settings of it and enable "let windows manage your wireless networks" or something to that effect...

or this may help
