Services Stopping Unexpectedly - again, and again, and again

[molotov]

Just to add to what Barney wrote, there's a way to accomplish essentially the
same thing but is a bit less involved - basically, run:

sc config wuauserv type= own
(space between '=' and 'o' in own is important)

More details @:

Separating automatic updates from the svchost...

Hello!

Did you install the kb932762 patch and if so, did it solve your problem?

We have the same problem but i do not get the error message access denied
when i try to start the services again.

Hi guys & Girls,

First thing is to make sure it is an update issue. Press Atl+Cntrl+Del. Find the Svchost Pid that is hogging the CPU or the most amount of Ram.

Next Open a command prompt and type:

tasklist /svc

And find the Pid in there this will break down what is using the svchost. And then post. This coupled with the windows Task Man should be very helpfull.
