SQL Agent won't start

Question

Hi,
I tried to start the SQL Agent on my SQL 2008 Server but got this error:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
Unable to start service SQLSERVERAGENT on server ACHSQL12. (mscorlib)
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The SQLSERVERAGENT service on ACHSQL12 started and then stopped. (ObjectExplorer)
BUTTONS:
OK
Is there anything I should check?
Regards
Paul

You see the article for getting update :
Before you can start to use FILESTREAM, you must enable FILESTREAM on the instance of the SQL Server Database Engine. Enabling/configuring FILESTREAM is a bit different from configuring other SQL features because it involves making machine wide changes
and not only SQL instance changes. Also, FILESTREAM configuration has been changed for the February CTP to properly separate the Windows Built-in administrator and SQL administrator roles. In the November CTP, enabling/disabling FILESTREAM required Built-in
Admin privilege. Enabling FILESTREAM is now made up of 2 admin layers:
1-     
The Windows configuration layer handles Windows related setup changes required for FILESTREAM. This requires built in administrator privilege. FILESTREAM settings in the SQL Configuration Manager (SQL-CM) represent this admin layer.
2-     
The SQL configuration layer handles the setup changes required within the boundaries of the SQL instance. The SQL Admin can now use sp_configure/RECONFIGURE to handle this FILESTREAM configuration.
