Windows sharepoint admin service not starting

Question
-
Hi,
I found my SharePoint admin service is not started. when tried to start manually, it is throwing an error saying that it couldn't start.
Tried troubleshooting : IISRESET, stsadm -o execadmsvcjobs, run configuration wizards, PS config, service sharepoint web services start & stop.
not able to start to SharePoint admin services.
Could someone please give me suggestion on this to start the admin service.
Not tried rebooting the server, as i need prior approvals from my superiors for doing the same.
Thanks
Badri

Hey there
Well Microsoft patch kb2677070 automatically updates revoked security certificates. It lets Windows Server go out to the internet. But if your server is firewalled away in a DMZ and does not have unfettered internet access, this call to the find the updated revocation list will fail. When it does, the SharePoint 2010 Administration service will not start.- Open Group Policy Editor. From start->search box, type in gpedit.msc and hit return.
- Navigate to Computer Configuration->Windows Settings->Public Key Policies-> Certificate Path Validation Settings.
- Click on the “Network Retrieval” tab.
- Check the “Define these policy settings” and uncheck the “Automatically update certificates in the Microsoft Root Certificate Program”
- Click OK
