I have seen something similar to this before.  I had installed Exchange2k
and rebooted the server.  The services would fail to start and I could not
start them manually.  I ended up re-installing everything on the box and
tried rebooting again, same thing happened.  I reinstalled a third time and
then I installed Exchange service pack 2 before I rebooted, and everything
came up fine.  I have talked with a few people after the fact and they had
no explanation as to what exactly was going on, but it worked with SP2.  On
similar hardware I have been able to reproduce the scenario, so maybe it has
something to do with the hardware configuration.

At any rate, you can't install service pack 2 unless all services are
running, so you have to install it right after you install Exchange, BEFORE
the initial reboot.  I hope this helps with your problem.  As a side note, I
did NOT install Exchange on a DC, it was a member server.

I am in the process of setting up Exchange 2000 on one of our DC's and when
I finish the install and reboot, I receive an error that a service failed to
load. The Exchange information store is the service that will not start. I
did some searches on the error and found little info. I tried uninstalling
and reinstalling Exchange and this did not help the problem. Has anyone had
this problem on initial setup? I am also looking for info on configuring an
AD connector to exchange, any tips or suggestions would be greatly
appreciated.
