As I'm sure everyone will tell you shortly, there is no M: drive. It does not exist. Make sure nothing tries to touch the non-existent M: drive, especially AV products.

If I attempt to run an anti virus product on the non Exchange files I've had problems with services hanging on starting (if the AV was allowed to scan the M drive all sorts of things started locking up). I've also tried installing a backup application (HP Omniback) to allow backup to a large tape silo. this caused similar problems (SRS service showed up as Starting, unable to start or stop other services) until I set it to manual start and let everything else start first. Has anyone seen similar problems? Do I need to set a dependency for the backup service or is there something more fundamental going on? regards, Richard Dann Telenor Business Solutions, a division of international telecoms organisation Telenor, is a leading European Communications Service Provider.
