Audio Service not starting

My Audio worked fine.

In setting several 3rd party services to manual, I must have done something
wrong & my audio no longer works. Speaker in system tray has red X & says
'Audio service not running'. Under Services, Windows Audio won't start.
giving error message: Wndows could not start Windows Audio service on Local
Computer. Error 1068: the depedency service or group failed to start.

Search of Vista Knowledgebase gave no results. I must have inadvertently
disabled some other service?

Any suggestions?

Double-click the Windows Audio service and look at the services in the
dependancies tab. You must have disabled one of these.
