Hung Service

We can't stop or make any changes to any of our Services.

I think what is causing the problem is the 'Microsoft
Exchange Site Replication Service'. It is stuck in
a 'STARTING' status every time we restart the server. It
never changes the status. Any attempt to change the
service will just hang. Then we have to use task manager
to kill the Service Manager MMC. We don't need the
service 'Microsoft Exchange Site Replication Service'
running.

Any ideas?

Thanks!!!
 
From the recovery console you can disable the service. At a command prompt;

disable "service name"

To start the Recovery Console, start the computer from the Windows 2000
Setup CD or the Windows 2000 Setup floppy disks. If you do not have Setup
floppy disks and your computer cannot start from the Windows 2000 Setup CD,
use another Windows 2000-based computer to create the Setup floppy disks.
Press ENTER at the "Setup Notification" screen. Press R to repair a Windows
2000 installation, and then press C to use the Recovery Console. The
Recovery Console then prompts you for the administrator password. If you do
not have the correct password, Recovery Console does not allow access to the
computer. If an incorrect password is entered three times, the Recovery
Console quits and restarts the computer. Once the password has been
validated, you have full access to the Recovery Console, but limited access
to the hard disk. You can only access the following folders on your
computer: %systemroot% and %windir%
