Hi, I bought a new laptop came with Windows 8 couple days ago, and it is driving me nuts. When I tried to restart or shut down the laptop, it had a

chance that &quotConfiguring Windows Features&quot would show up and waste me a lot of time. I have reset the whole system 2 times and it didn't help. Then

I figured it out I should checked Event Viewer and see what happened. I found out that every time the&quotConfiguring Windows Features&quot showed up,

there would be a error called

[SIZE=9pt]&quotThe server {752073A1-23F2-4396-85F0-8FDB879ED0ED} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout.&quot And I found a solution for W7:[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]I didn't find RegistrySizeLimit on it so I created one myself I know the solution might not work for W8 but I gotta try.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt] Actually, it worked, for two days, and it just [/SIZE]happened again. The error and the &quotConfiguring Windows Features&quot showed up again
I went back to check the registry and RegistrySizeLimit was still there, so I decided to delete it and try it again. This time I did a SFC/SCANNOW which I

forgot last time, and it told me that some corrupt files were found and fixed. Then, I restarted.....
Configuring Windows Features. Pleas do not turn off your computer.

Someone.....help..... :(


P.S. My Windows Update was up to date and I turned the auto update off. Still, no help at all. Also I checked the Windows Update and Windows

Features after the configuration. Apparently, there was no changes made.

Update: I found another error on the event viewer: &quotCBS Client initialization failed. Last error: 0x80080005&quot So this could be the problem too?
