windows event viewer service.

Vista ultimate 64

could not get to download windows updates (error 80074024) so tried various
fixes found on the internet. stopping and starting services etc.

Found that my windows and event viewer cannot be started, because the
service is not running.
Can't start the service due to error message like 'Error 1079 the account
specified for this service is different from the account specified for other
services running in te same process.'

It is set to log on as Local System, and it should be logging on as Local
Service.
I cannot change the log on info as it is all greyed out (disabled)

Thanks.
