Diagnostic Policy Service (DPS) starts then...Expand / Collapse

I have the Diagnostic Policy Service (DPS) set to automatically start,
but it never shows that it's running. When I try to start it manually,
it starts and then stops with a message that says that some services
just stop when they are not in use by other programs. There are no error
messages on the Event Viewer that are related to this. (Just
informational messages showing that it started and another showing that
it stopped).

This service used to work, but for some unknown reason just decided to
quit functioning. Does anyone have a clue as to what's happening? I've
Goggled it and have found others that have the same problem, but no
solutions were located.

Thanks.

I installed SP1 with no problems at all. However, the Diagnostic Policy
Service still fails to "stay started".

Have you found a way to get DPS to start and stay started?
Thanks,

Nope! I've also done a few Google searches since I originally posted
that message (03/17/08) and nothing new (that works) has shown up.

I'll probably be doing a reinstall of Vista at some point... going to be
doing some computer upgrades later this year. That'll fix it for sure.

Good luck. However a correction, short of a reinstall, should be
present.
Thanks,
