Resolve
Check the event log again in two minutes to see if the problem persists
The Security Accounts Manager (SAM) failed to determine whether group caching was enabled. The failure is probably due to a resource error. There should be additional information in the Event Viewer event message text that describes the resource error. The SAM retries the operation every two minutes. If the problem persists, additional events are recorded in Event Viewer.
Review the Event Viewer events for indications that another software component or hardware component is failing, and then attempt to resolve that issue.
