The Audio Service is not running on HP 530 laptop.  Also Vista is very slow.  Please help!

To start the Windows Audio service go to Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Services and set Windows Audio to Automatic. For anything else you need to provide a lot more details.

Thanks for your quick reply.

We have already tried that.  It is already set to Automatic.  Receive error message "Error 1059: Circular service dependency was specified."

What other details do you require to help solve it?  We also have some other symptoms.  When the Windows wallpaper appears the following problems occur:

  1. "Sync Windows Services stopped working and was closed"
  2. "Address a problem with External Hard Drive Software"
  3. Cannot access Power Options on Control Panel

What led up to this - what is different between the last time the system worked as expected and the first time it did not (new hw, sw, virus, error, etc)?

We are not too sure.  It's my son's laptop and he only told me today.  It might be a driver file that has got currupted.  Or it could be a virus from a file he downloaded.  We were hoping you could shed some light on it.  Previous times I have visited this forum, I've been asked to supply logfile from HijackThis.

Computer is very slow.

You're describing more than one problem. I would not be surprised if it was malware. I'd post in the HiJack This Forum and ask RichieUK to take a look at it.
