RPC...have you checked to make sure the RPC Service is running?

Error Reporting and Cryptographic are set to Automatic, but are not running
and won't start manually.

It worked for me.
All the best!

computer.I have tried everything I can find suggested on the net but without
success. In the Services window, Cryptographic Services (CS) has no status
EG: nothing written where you would expect to read Stopped or Running. It has
been set to Automatic. I have tried re-registering dll's, I have tried
renaming the catroot file, I have tried starting it in MS-DOS, I have tried
running the batch file "fixdb" but it's as though CS does'nt exist!. I have
done SFC's in Windows and MS-DOS but still nothing. The error message in
MS-DOS reads "Thee service is starting, The service could not be started, A
system error has occurred, System error 127 has occurred, The specified
procedure could not be found". When trying to install SP2 it always fails
with "Service Pack2 Setup Error. Setup could not verify the integrity of the
file Update.inf. Make sure the CS is running on this computer". Am I now
looking at a system repair from the installation disc? Any advice would be
welcome as I would love to have sorted for Christmas. Thanks.

OK had the same problems and found this fix from Microsoft:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/838428
To resolve this behavior, follow these steps.
Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you
how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you
modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow
these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before
you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.
For more information about how to back up and restore the registry,
click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base:
322756 How to back up and restore the registry in Windows
1. Restart your computer by using the Safe Mode startup option. To do
this, follow these steps:
a. Restart your computer, and when the Boot menu appears, press F8.
b. Under Windows Advanced Options Menu, select Safe Mode, and then
press ENTER.
c. When the Boot menu appears again with the words "Safe Mode"
displayed at the bottom of the menu, select the operating system that
you want to start, and then press ENTER.
2. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
3. In the left pane, locate and then click the following registry
subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware
Profiles\Current\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\ROOT\LEGACY_RPCSS
4. On the File menu, click Export.
5. In the File name box, type a name for the registry file.
6. In the Save in list, click the location where you want to save the
registry file, and then click Save.
7. Right-click LEGACY_RPCSS, click Delete, and in the Confirm Key
Delete dialog box, click Yes.
Note Do not delete any one of the following subkeys that may be found
under the ROOT subkey:
o MS_L2TPMINIPORT
o MS_NDISWANIP
o MS_PPPOEMINIPORT
o MS_PPTPMINIPORT
o MS_PSCHEDMP
o MS_PTIMINIPORT
8. Exit Registry Editor.
9. Restart your computer by using the Restart Windows Normally startup
option.
Back to the top
Seems the problem was being casued by the RPC not being assigned to the
current hardware profile, so the cryptographic services would not start.
Once the above was done and the PC was started things started working
the way they should. The machine had just been infected by one of the
bebo viruses going around.
Hope this helps someone.
