Hi Sangeetha,

This issue appears to be related to a known Microsoft issue in which a service may not start before a defined timeout. The issue is more likely to occur if your computer is heavily loaded, or if the installation is within a VMware image, resulting in generally slower performance.

SOLUTION:
Increase the timeout value for service startup process to give it more time to load when the computer (or VMware image) starts. To do so, use the following procedure.

1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.

2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control

3. Right-click Control, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.

4. In the New Value #1 box, type ServicesPipeTimeout, and then press ENTER.

5. Right-click ServicesPipeTimeout, and then click Modify.

6. Click Decimal, type the number of milliseconds that you want to wait until the service times out, and then click OK. Typically, a data value of 35,000 is sufficient to keep the service from timing out. However, you can reduce or increase this value according to your specific startup requirements. For example, to wait 60 seconds before the service times out, type 60000.

7. Quit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.
