Keith,
I was listening to podcast 64 and heard about your Exchange 2007 problem. I has a very similiar problem with one of my clients who ran Exchange 2007. However, not only did the system attendant not start but neither would the information store. They would be fine when I manually started them, but after a power failure or other restart of the server, they would not start.
I wanted to warn about Microsofts fix for this. I followed the same article as you and decided to do the proposed registry fix for the dependencies. I first made a backup of the registry. After I made my fix and rebooted NONE of the Exchange services would start. After tinkering around, I restored the backup copy of the registry and rebooted. Once it came back up still NONE of the services would start. After panicking for several minutes and editing the registry for about an hour, I was about to get right back to where I started, wasting all that time. What I found that actually fixed the problem is here:

I hope this helps in some way. Love the show!

Yes, the “whine” is still there, BUT at a much reduced level so that I can only hear it during the silent parts between speaking. This podcast was much better to listen to (not related to content)… Thanks.
