Error 711 after optional Windows Update
Hi, i installed the Windows 7 RC1 yesterday and everyything was working fine until i installed the patch for the Realtek Network Card via live update today. After the update was installed, my internet connection got terminated and windows update told me to restart. After rebooting the device manager showed an error for myy network card sayng "this device cannot start" This was resolved by doing a roll-back on the network driver, but then I got an Error 711 (RAS could be startet in time) when I tried to connect to the internet again. I used system restore to load a backup from last night, but that didn't help. When I try to manually start the RAS-Service, I get an Error 1068 "The Dependency Service or Group Failed To Start" . I tried (re)starting the dependencies manually and they seem to work. I also tried setting the startup options for all services involved to "automatic" (as suggested here ) with no success. Any thoughts? I'm pretty much out of ideas... Thanks in advance, I.Hamer System: OS: Windows 7 Evaluation Copy Build 7100 CPU: Intel i7920 Mainboard: Gigsabyte UD4P RAM: 6gb Graphics: Nvidia GTX275 898Mb

What happens when you restart the service after all the dependencies are verified to be working? If no luck, just roll back the optional update for now until a newer one is released.

Hi Guys, I have the same issues, I check the dependancies and Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol, will not stay started. Have you found a solution yet? Also I can not check my event logs as that comes up with an Error: 4201. This instance name passed was not recognized as valid by a WMI data provider.Any Ideas to either of these?

Sorry, clicked too quickly : i have unfortunately no answer. I have exactly the same problems after installing and uninstalling a program Sony Ericsson for my cell phone. Error 711, error 1068, error 5 (access denied) for the eventlog, and my anti-virus Sophos doesn't start too... Who have a good idea ??? Thanks.
