Hello everyone,
I'm new here and I really need help with this, I did check around for help but nothing seems like it fits with what I'm going through :mad:
I have a HP laptop with Windows vista home edition, and this has never happened to me. It started today, in which I thought it was nothing. I'm a little worried to be honest and I don't know what's wrong with my connection. I can access the internet on my mother computer which is a desktop, yet I can't on my HP laptop. it says "The Dependency Service or Group Failed to Start" ??
help!:(

well I tried to sfc /scannow and all that sort but no luck at all
I even looked around and still wont work, I tried to go into the service control manager.. nothing?

In the Services section I clicked on internet connection sharing (ICS) to start the service because it says "stopped" and it tells me "Error 1068: dependency service or group failed to start." Windows could not start the internet connection sharing (ISC) service on local computer?

Network Location Awareness will not start as well "Service status: stopped"
says:
Windows could not start the Network Location Awareness on local computer. For more information, review the system event log. if this is a non-microsoft service, contact service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code..."

If you run EVENTVWR, that should bring up the "Event Viewer" applet. Check for error or warning-type events logged every time you try to start the NLA (network location awareness) service. There may be data in the description of that event which would help to understand why NLA is failing to start on your machine. In fact, there's a "copy to clipboard" button on each event, so you could paste the entire event here.

This is what I had received when I copy from the Event viewer.
Source: Service Control Manager
The Network Location Awareness service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1100 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken 60000 milliseconds: Restart service.

The network Location Awareness service terminated with service-specific error

Yes? What's the service-specific error?

Yes, I have, twice and it is still the same, maybe I should try it once more?

Unless you've got an earlier restore point available, it seems unlikely that a third attempt at something you've already tried twice will help. No harm in it though.

If you reboot, note the time, and then scan the system event log for all errors and warnings in the first few minutes after the reboot, what is the sequence of events? In other words, is that NLA event the only error or are there others?

I'm trying to gauge whether the NLA failure is itself symptomatic of some earlier breakdown.

I will call the store in which I got the laptop from.. I still have warranty so maybe they can hopefully help me out with this problem?

If they're willing to help, they'll probably just reinstall the entire OS for you. That's not such a bad thing unless you've got an incredible amount of personalisation to recreate afterwards - most people don't. In all, it may be the fastest path to a fix.

Hello,
I had a friend of mine try to help me out with this current issue. He could not find out the problem, but had told me to contact the store in which I purchased my laptop. He did mention that during that time, something might have happened to trigger this. As of this moment nothing is settled.
