it appears that this 'solution' just deletes the entries from the event log... it does not actally correct the problem causing them to appear in the 1st place

Since so many posted allready it doesnt make a big difference but I have the same problem playing LotRO. Computer locks up. Sometimes when i use the poweroff button it returns for a sec, sometimes not. Takes foreever to rebuild the RAID afterwards.

I get this error and a BSOD when I am playing Everquest 2. Seems to be a common issue with online MMORPG games.

The error above is cause by two Root Worms! here are their names: Tok-Currhatus-1233 and Bron-Spizaetus, their is also an unknown Root kit Called "Empty"

I was experiencing the same issues, here is a way to test to see if infected, by the way virus scanner will not detect this root kits....

1. In the search bar, of windows Vista typ MSCONFIG, if infected the system will shutdown and restart.

2. Try to download any Windows updates, system will shutdown and restart.

Solution

1. Start your system in Safe Mode with Networking.

2. run MSConfig

3. In the Startup tab, Disable Tok-Cirrhatus, Bron-spizaetus, Empty and nay other startup system that it is not recognized, (Hint, type the name in google and it will tell you what it is)

4. run virus scanner and remove the Root Worm's

Restart and system is now clean.

If this does not work, let us know, and we will try to identify further problems.

This is a microsoft issue of sorts not virus, spyware etc. read the info people are posting regarding this problem. I have a clean machine and get this issue running the occasional game.

This happens for me any time at all. during games, browsing the internet, doing anything at all, it's not only for games.

I tried this, we'll see if it works. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/KB950375

This needs to be fixed, it looks like quite a large problem. Its not just a case of ignoring it, it freezes the computer at random intervals.

Hi my problem solved
the strange BSOD have now disappeared and the computer is stable.
This is what ill did
Removed one of the ram then the computer went stable, thought ill found the problem then that the removed memory was faulty and replaced the working memory with the one that ill thought was faulty but the computer was still stable???
Then ill put both memory in but in swapped place and every thing works???
Now ill gonna reinstall my computer to have a clan copy of vista hope it works.
Ill still thou have the Event filter with query "SELECT * FROM, problem acquiring in the log file.
However, that does not matter for me, as long as my computer is stable.

Hope you find you solution

Best regards

Solution:

run cmd.exe as administratior

net stop winmgmt /y

DEL /s /q C:WindowsSystem32wbemRepository*.*

reboot your computer

There are 4 files ---index,mapping,objects. Is the intent to delete these and resolve the problem forever?

Is this magic? Does Microsoft have a real and official answer to this "problem".

Frankly I think ignoring "errors" is dumb, as is deleting "bad data". the right solution is to fix the offending code and/or design(s).

I would do as you suggest if someone else can tell me deleting these files will not cause damage to my new PC.

the 4 files were created when the machine was manufactured, so will I lose functionality. Will these files be self-repaired and exist again (a resurrection?). Sorry to mistrust you. but need a little more confidence b4 proceeding, ok?

I did jump in a give this a try dispite A-Con-Citz valid concern. I found no changein funtionality and still have the problem

I found a variation on the answer about doing deletes, and seems others are pleased, that the fix is not destructive, and actually helps them as well. seems it needs a few reboots to get rid of ALL the error msgs

involved. read carefully, it also seems to need another registry fix to get some functionality back to par.

IN summary, a clean simple set of instructions would be nice, or better yet A REAL FIX from vendor.

stuff is from mar/june.. why didn't microsoft answer this or put out a fix for this problem?

are u there ?

http://www.msfn.org/board/Here-s-Fix-WMI-Event-ID-t114389.html

someone posted a link to a script solution above and I think this might have solved the problem. Last night and this morning I was getting constant freezes and now the comp. has been steady for a few hours. The event error seems to be gone (done about 5 reboots since and doesn't show up)

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc727148.aspx

Hi all, I have had this solution for a long time, and have used it on 10+ computers successfully. I only use it when the error is present. If I could attach it I would. but It doesnt allow me to here. Anyways...take the text below, paste it into notepad, and rename it to have *.vbs extension (for those who dont know, make the .txt say .vbs). Make sure to run as administrator. This also works to assign as a login script for workgroups having this problem. Use the text after this for the vbs::::

strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\" _
& strComputer & "rootsubscription")

Set obj1 = objWMIService.Get("__EventFilter.Name='BVTFilter'")

set obj2set = obj1.Associators_("__FilterToConsumerBinding")

set obj3set = obj1.References_("__FilterToConsumerBinding")

For each obj2 in obj2set
WScript.echo "Deleting the object"
WScript.echo obj2.GetObjectText_
obj2.Delete_
next

For each obj3 in obj3set
WScript.echo "Deleting the object"
WScript.echo obj3.GetObjectText_
obj3.Delete_
next

WScript.echo "Deleting the object"
WScript.echo obj1.GetObjectText_
obj1.Delete_

Same here: the whole system freezes and mouse and keyboard (which have light in them) turns dark and no iput is possible. I only hear my hard drives and a hard reboot is the only option. I has been a mightmare, because the same problem is also on Vista 32 bits with or or without all the new drivers, updates for all (!!!) hard and software. So I use 64 bits with the same problems.

Also professionals dont know what it is and replaced every hardware (!) of my totally new system. But it'still coming back argh! It's getting me MAD!

Anyone new suggestions, because its not entirely clear that this event log IS the cause of all trouble.

I have this problem aswell, and it happens VERY often. Three times a day at least, very annoying. I've tried this : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/KB950375

But I don't know if it'll work, I'll have to see. Please Microsoft, make an update with a fix for this problem!

Alex, 2009/January/04

If I do that after execution I got in the end an acces denied message :(

If you are getting this Access Denied message it is because Windows Vista UAC is turned on, and the script in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/KB950375 does not cause the UAC allowance message to come up. What you need to do is turn off UAC and run the script from an administrator profile. This will allow the script to complete. I have not had the reboots nor Event ID 10 errors since using the fix.

I tried the deletion method, but every time after doing everything and restarting the computer, the files are back in the directory

Hi guys,

I have had 3 crashes with this error in the logs at approximately the same time as the crashes. Error doesn't indicate what caused except possibly Roxio hard drive detector.. which I don't knowingly use.. Any ideas what I need to change would be appreciated.

I've tried all the different types of resolution (not recording the ID, flushing out the repository etc) and none of them work! I'm currently unable to run Windows Update because of this error as anything but Defender updates just causes the PC to lock solid.

Why has this issue not been addressed by MS?

HI guys again,

Hi guys. Seems like im having the same problem as most of you. My only confusion is that when i get the BSOD after reboot Windows error reporting tells me this is due to my ethernet card. I've uninstalled and reinstalled my cards driver and it still seems to do it. No idea whats causing either but hopefully a solution is found.

On a brand-new Vista PC, I'm seeing the blue error screen every time I shutdown or restart, and I tracked it down to WMI Event ID 10. After attempting to shutdown normally, the blue screen appears, and I have to hold down the power button to shut down the PC.

I tried running the vbs script given above, and after disabling UAC, I was able to run it successfully without any error messages. It didn't fix the problem, however.

When I start up in Safe mode, I can shut down normally without seeing the blue screen, so I know that something in my startup is causing it. I went through MsConfig and disabled all the startup programs and services theere. I restarted once so that the changes would take effect and then again to see if the problem still occurred. It did. Vista doesn't seem to provide an option to boot up with step-by-step confirmation, so I still don't know what's causing the problem.

It would be great if Microsoft would provide a fix. From the support page, I can see that the error can be ignored, so it would be nice if there were a way to suppress this error or keep it from causing the blue error screen to appear.

Same error here and it is affecting my gameplay in 3D Games only. My PC freezes randomly when inside a game.
Tried a hole sort of "solutions" including temps, memory, GPU voltage, BIOSmod, PSU, etc. etc. etc.; already changed almost every hardware parts in my PC (MOBO, memory, video card, cooler, PSU) and the problem still goes on.

I'm going to try the Microsoft KB solution since i'm not confortable to delete system files.

I'll keep you posted.

I installed the CIM tools as instructed and brought up rootCIMV2 in the WMI Event Registration tool. When I try to browse to rootCIMV2SecurityMicrosoft Tpm, I get the same error code:
CServicesList::OpenNamespace: call failed with error code 0x80041003.

I don't see any way past this to 'edit the registrations' as instructed.

I had problem with freezing system after WMI error. I upgraded NVIDA Geforce 9500M driver and for now I dont have this problem.

After reinstalling vista 9 times, 2 weeks on the net searching this topic and I finnaly figured out why my pc was locking up and was getting random bsod. I always would install vista and before doing my vista updates i would install my nvidia chipset, graphics drivers and nvidia system tools. Then do my vista updates. I found that by doing those drivers first it corrupted those files your all trying to delete. this is how I did my install and no longer get that error, lock ups or bsod,
1.) before installing vista click on repair vista first bring up the cmd prompt and type format C: format your drive or drives first. vista seems to just reinstall in 4 minutes so you know its not replacing corrupt files.

2.) install vista then update fully. letting vista take full controle and rebooting when it says.

3.) then go get your chipset and graphics drivers. install chipset first, reboot, then graphics, reboot then system tools if you run nvidia. i dont know about ati as i think they are junk.lol

4.) then install your games, programs, and back up files.

Then your done, ten bucks says your all set. See I tried the above fix from microsoft using the script and it just stopped the error and didnt fix the problem. Then from reading on the net i tried deleting those files and it trashed my nvidia controle panel and shut off my sli. then I rma all my pc parts and replaced them all incase they were bad. lol come to find out it was just an improper install. thats why microsoft hasnt fixed this in an update. good luck to everyone on this Im glad its over for me. it was way to much time wasted.
PC specs:
vista ultimate 64 sp1
xfx mb 780i sli
8 gigs ddr2 ocz
core 2 quad 3.0
2= 10,000rpm raptor drives raid 0

Good luck,

I too have had the same recurring error message. Using my powers of deduction, I evaluted the message and concluded that the error comes from a system overload, not in the error message "TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99".(not the "99" at the end). For me I was maxing out my TCP/IP, exceeding security limit of maximum connections and also maxing out my disk write speed, all this was due to Internet File Transfers, when I limited the amount of people that I could connect to at any 1 time the error stopped occuring. So I am guessing it is memory related. From reading the other posts it seems that a few others may have been maxing the memory due to games consuming resources. If you have alot of processes running at the same time I would suggest disable the one's you do not use all the time and setting the service start-up as manual, not automatic and rebooting your system.

If any one can back up my assumptions please leave a post here.

... and we are still dealing with unfixed problems like this?
I get this error a few times a day and if I am not mistaken, MS's "solution" above is to just make the error stop appearing in the log, but has nothing to do with fixing the error, right?

Come on, MS! I know you're working hard to get "7" out because Vista is such a failure, but you have to still keep this thing working for those of us who bought a new computer and are stuck with it!

I just tried to do what brettb72 did. As soon as windows was installed, I installed all updates through windows update. Restarted several times throughout this process. As soon as i tried to install the drivers for my motherboard....BSOD.....after reboot, I immediately uninstalled the nvidia drivers that it blue screened while installing (amazingly they were actually there) restarted then went into the event viewer and...

Error 5/7/2009 8:41:35 AM WMI 10 None
Error 5/7/2009 8:26:54 AM WMI 10 None
Error 5/7/2009 8:16:08 AM WMI 10 None

Note: 6:24 a.m. is when Vista x64 home premium first booted after install. 8:00 a.m. is when the updates finished.

Is the XFX 680i LT SLI Motherboard compatible with Wndows Vista??

What causes this?? Microsoft, why can't this be fixed through an update??

well i'm not exactly knowledgeable in this area of comps and such but my error apparently occurs at start-up, my comp has never crashed due to this and it just bothers me that this shows up numerous times in the event log every time i check
and now that i check again it has always been there ever since i got this comp which is last year july~ ish, and i guess miraculously nothing has gone wrong
hopefully there is a fix for this soon as im just getting paranoid over this

My issue is a little different, but has the same outcome. I am trying to install a drive for my mobo (Asus M3A79-T Deluxe). It is the Northbridge filter. Fresh install, checked ram with memtest. My rig Penom II 940 BE, M3A79-T Deluxe, 4GB ram Mushkin (2x2 GB) VisionTek 4870 512 MB. Same evnt ID as everyone else. I need this driver.

I get same error
this page is for windows 2008?
I have vista Home premium

I was getting this error starting Saturday(6/6). My Dell laptop was shutting down and rebooting itself, roughly every 45 to 75 minutes on Event ID 10.
As someone else posted about installing updates for nvidia. I had a notice on my 'install new updates' notification and one of them was to intall the latest NVIDAI GeForce 8400M GS update. I installed it and have been fine since then.

O yes i have the same problem

I will say this after ***ing wth this operating system for 2 dam weeks im down to only 1 error
and another thing vista is not compliant wth hardly nothing with out having a shitload of problems even software that says is vista COMPLIANT DOSENT WORK WTH OUT ***ING WTH IT FOR 10 HOURS

and yes for such a high tech op system we should not have all these issues ,apparently alot of us are having the same ones lock ups, freeze, wmi,and ive had my share i had to rid my Nvidea card and put back my ATI card that helped some. I guess insted of makin a op system that was complicating for its world surroundings just should of made one that was compliant to the world . THX

I also have tha same problem as everyone here. I'm not sure but I think tha OS is only for AMD's CPU. Not really sure if I'm right but I have a intel core 2 duo n I'm having problem's with tha window's vista. If somebody would like to give this a try?

I found a bad SATA cable for my primary hard drive was bad. I was not only getting this error, but would occasionally get an error on boot that the hard drive coudn't be accessed. I haven't seen the error since replacing the cable.

I have been getting this problem continuously since using Vista Home Prem 64bit in Oct 08. I worked with MS techs for weeks on it, running various vbs tests, etc., trying to stop the query from happening in the first place. They suggest it can be safely ignored but why is it an error vs a warning then?? It seems to always come in conjunction with Whea event logger error relating to corrected hardware errors.

For me, this happens everytime at start-up and from what I've been told, it happens anytime your processor maxes out(above 99% useage) as the WMI is supposed to prioritize tasks at that point but can't properly due to the error. I haven't had near the problems as some of you, it's more of annoyance to me that my reliability monitor score is low due to this single error.

Anyhow, as mentioned, I was sent up the ladder of tech support to various specialists, sent them results from several WMI tests and eventually they sent me a new 64 bit Vista disc. The problem was not fixed and also had issues getting all the necessary drivers for HP that do not come pre-installed with the clean Vista. After doing the clean install and spending hours upon hours on getting all the necessary oem drivers and software, nothing changed.

Bottom Line? MS has no clue. After I did all they instructed(tests, clean install, etc.) they eventually stopped responding to my emails!! I was actually told "See if you can get by til Win7 comes out. It will only be a $50 upgrade"???!! My question?? What difference is that gonna make? If they can't fix it now, I assume that 7 will have the WMI in it as well and why should I think it will be fixed then? I tried 7 RC1 and while it is nice, why should I hand them more money when I'm not satisfied with this product?? If they can't fix this OS, can't even manage it, shouldn't they be offering the upgrade free if indeed they corrected the problem??

Someone also mentioned it may have something to do with Vista being structured for AMD only. That's what I have, same issue though not as severe as others on here. It's also not a rootkit problem on my machine. Just FYI.

I have been dealing with this for weeks now. Read the solution here from Microsoft. Erm thanks for that. Now can anyone explain it in English so a proficient user can fix this for themselves. This failure comes up as a critical error and co incides with a very high number of system crashes I am having.

How can this issue not be resolved by now? i have had this problem on my new computer which i built that shuts it down whenever i try and play crysis cod5 or even spore. keeps happening.i cant afford any new computer parts and this is a very troubling issue. i have had this happen when i dont play games to and i need this computer working for my schoolwork

Ohh... I feel your pain, party people.

I purchased my computer ten days ago, today is 7/27/09, and have been suffering from random freezes at random intervals. I have an HP Pavilion with an AMD Phenom X4 processor with 7 gigs of ram and I am running Vista Home Premium 64-bit.

The freezes come at random; I could be in IE or any other program. I lose complete control of my PC with the freeze and can not move the mouse or use the keyboard to bring up task manager.

I have been on the phone with HP support seven times and have tried this and that and the other and this and that all over again. Nothing. HP wants me to send the tower to the "bench" and are sending me all the appropriate materials to do so, but I am hesitant.

Hmmmmmmmm....

Hi Guys, well ... I've been suffering this issue since last december !

Well ... I've almost got insane, but I keeped living with problem ...

So, I've got MAD with this, and searched almost ALL google pages because of it, so, follow the solution:

First of all ... THIS INS'T a Windows problem, this is a HARDWARE PROBLEM, Windows just found it's way to log some error, that in fact has NOTHING related to the real problem.

My system aspecs:

XFX 780I 3-Way SLI

Q9650@4050Mhz

4X 1GB Kingston HyperX 1066@1080

I don't really know if it will apply to all you ... What did I realized, is that many of people who face it have a nForce chipset, no matter which one, but they have a nForce chipset.

Another commom found, was that the windows "Freeze" when we are in "Idle" state ... as many people state that ... During load ( gamming, or some hard CPU work ) the problem do not happen, so, see it either happen to you, if so, the solution will help you too.

Well ... after looking after this like crazy, I've realized that in "Idle" state my windows freeze, so I've checked ALL the hardware parts, memories, cpu, voltagens, GPU'S ... and got nothing ...

So, I was looking for WHAT is the difference in being idle or load ... trying to find out what is happening ...

A basic BIOS setup active an option called C1 STATE ... this option make your processor to change it's Multiplier to a lower one.

Exemple:

If I'm using a multiplier of 9x, using the C1 STATE in Bios ... My multiplier will be reduced to x8 when idle ...

Well, this is it ... after changing the C1 State to DISABLED on the bios, the problem was finally gone ^^

Many people solved their problem changing their PSU, I don't know if it can solve this issue ... but I have a Theory about What makes it:

"When you are at load, your PSU send the necessary voltage to your CPU, so, it will not gonna crash ... when you're at idle state, the PSU change the voltage value, what can make the windows to Freeze ...

After so long looking for a solution to this, I've figured out ( at least for me ) ... what was causing this issue.

I've reported this problem to nVidia, I'm waiting their answer ... I'm not sure but, I think that a new Bios can solve it ...

Well Guys, I hope to did a good job posting it ...

Sorry for some English mystakes, I'm Brazillian with a intermediate English hehe ^^

Well, see yaa !

I had this problem (0x80041003) on my brandnew Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 with Vista. Tried all of the above options and reinstalling Vista both 32 bit and 64 bits versions. But nothing worked, the system kept rebooting before Windows could even start up and/or froze suddenly.
After a long search, it turned out that AVG antivirus caused the problem. I uninstalled it and replaced it by Avast; everything works fine now! Hope this helps, I spent far too much time on the problem myself!

First read this.


The Microsoft Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) driver and WMI IPMI provider supply data from the baseboard management controller (BMC) operations to the operating system.
The IPMI provider and driver perform the following operations remotely.

These operations do not depend on the computer CPU, system BIOS, or operating system:
Monitoring

BMC sensor data or events from remote computers can be monitored either through the operating system (in-band) or by obtaining data directly from the BMC (out-of-band).
Logging

The IPMI provider lets you access the events recorded in the BMC System Event Log (SEL). Each event corresponds to a LogRecord instance in the IPMI provider classes. You can view these events by using the Event Collector tool, Wecutil.cmd. SEL events appear in the Hardware Events Log in the Windows Event Log. You can write custom events, such as retrieving bug check data and shutdown information, to the SEL.

Then understand I have the same error as seen below.

Event filter with query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "Win32_Processor" AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace "//./root/CIMV2" because of error 0x80041003. Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected.

I then understood that its not a MS issue. Its a the issue of the driver provider supplying data to the OS via BMC to the operating system. In short the driver providers of various software and hardware drivers are not registering there drivers correctly.

THATS WHY IT APPEARS TO BE MANY THINGS

My laptop MS Vista x64 with nVidia drivers and CA Internet security Plus where both issues. I can tell you that CA Internet security plus has an issue withy the way it gets the WMI to handle TCP/IP.sys. I suspect that that is the same issue with the McAphee security issue mentioned above as well.

WHAT DID I DO TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE?
I updated the the nvidia driver and half the problems went away. All related issues from that point cam back to the TCP/IP.sys file. Given that CA Internet Secuirty interacts with file I un-installed CA Internet Security Plus 2009. (By the way this doesnt uninstall properly either - Un-install patch available from there site) and the problem disappearred. To confirm that same I re-installed the CA internet Sec Plus 2009 and the ussies returned.

UNFORTUNATELY (*)&^)*&^)
Unfortunately this means that any number of suppliers of drivers that interact with the OS in this manner could make the same error. The only solution is to work out which software or hardware component is doing it adn remove there software and / or related hardware.

THEN SCREAM AT THEM FOR BEING IDIOTS.

IMPORTANT NOTE 1: Do not under any circumstances try to re-install CA internet secuirty plus 2009 for Vista without running there removal tool first including a reboot. THEY GOT THIS SERIUOSLY WRONG TOO. baut thats a whole differrent story.

IMPORTANT NOTE 2: Watch what happens during your blue screen crashes it will give a you ahint to where the problem lies. Eg: the hint for me was TCP/IP.sys which i knew was a tunneling protcol for network and internet. Therefore firewall, therefore my secuirty software.

Good luck.

The machine's event log stands littered with this event (event ID 10) and 7026. Start the thing up with the hard drive spinning away maybe 10-15 minutes. Then start up the game World of Warcraft, and wait like two or three minutes, and sound distortions and crackles start. Keep running the game now and the machine freezes up, requiring a power down holding the power key. OR shut down WOW and restart. Either route and the second start up and no problems at all till next startup, assuming the next startup is done way later.

computer keeps restarting within a few minutes of logging in

Hi everyone and thanks for several fixes posted here.
As we've all been convinced - each and every particular case has its own way of fixing.
Here is my way of coping with this problem.Hope, it will help someone, even just to keep trying as this is curable,

I've tried to use Microsoft VBS script and cmd commands which clear the logs of the journal - but that didn't help. Files deleted, problem remained.
I've disconnected one of the two RAM cards. Freezes just kept on. Btw, I've used two separate software tools to check RAM and have found both cards stable.
I've even used Acronis System Backup to restore working state - even that didn't help!

So here is what helped me, and I'm not sure which one was to blaim:
1.I have uninstalled C++ redistributable update which was installed manually via Microsoft Update Center.
2.I have switched this option in BIOS Davi Negro was writing about (thanx, man!)

If I'm using a multiplier of 9x, using the C1 STATE in Bios ... My multiplier will be reduced to x8 when idle ...

Well, this is it ... after changing the C1 State to DISABLED on the bios, the problem was finally gone

Though, I'm not sure that that one was to blaim - my stable system worked fine with the multiplier of x9 previously.
3.Just to make sure I have switched places of my RAM cards.

My Vista works fine now.
My general specs:
Intel Core2Duo 3 ghz
ATI Sapphire 3870 512MB (Professionals work with ATI as Nvidia suck hard:)
2 Gb DDRIII RAM

Sometime around February-March, my display has been randomly turning off. The screen goes black, a "No Signal" message appears, then the monitor powers down to an idle state (from a blue light to an orange one, in my case). In the meantime, PC is still running I guess (lights are on, fan is on), I gotta do a cold shutdown to turn it off. Now, when I turn it back on, I don't necessarily regain my display, meaning that if 5 seconds or more have passed since I turned on my computer and I still don't see the BIOS screen, I gotta do another cold shutdown, and repeat this process until I finally have a display. When this problem first showed up, it was mild, "No Signal" message, reboot to regain it, and that was the end of it. But now, BlueScreens are happening A LOT, and sometimes three beeping sounds accompany the display error. This error happens in Safe Mode too. I post this here because I found an Event ID 10 log (Applications tab) and its timestamp was the same as when my computer errored, beeping sounds included. I just wanna know what's causing this, if it's either a hardware issue with the RAM, my video graphics card, or if this Event ID 10 thing has anything to do with it. I tried formatting the hard disk, and it seemed to have fixed the problem, but it has happened again, although only once.

My issue with this error initially seemed caused by my having disabled WMI and yet even after re-enabling and re-starting it, I still find the exact same event ID 10 log entries. This issue is just another of the countless examples of MS's miserable diagnostics, help & support and especially MS's meager sprinkling of supposed recommended resolutions (for those events that MS doesn't 'say' they have no information about). All in all MS's ill afforded in the event log's "event log online" results in few to no fixes, but then there's no reason for expecting MS to rarely if ever fix what they and others are 'designing' so poorly in the first place).

My computer locked up whilt playing "Chess Titans" with "LOTR" on and waiting in the wings. The screen locked up and became very pizalized, with 2.5 zillion white dots all over it in nice little rows. It would not do it in "Safe mode" but from then on, once the boot sequence got to the desktop, and loaded the various gagets and icons, it would lock up. I tried to open all sorts of software each time I restarted to try and get past it, but to no avail.

So after talking to, or should I say...trying to talk to some guy named "Dennis" from India for two and a half hours, he (Denish), instructed me to back up everything I wanted to keep on a removable hard drive storage device and then to return the computer to it's original factory state by performing a "system restore". What a huge pain in the lower forty!!!!!!!!!

After I performed the system restore, all was well. No more lock-ups. So, I began working through all of the updates and reinstalling all of my various software packages. Four days later, still updating and installing..I decided to listen to a DVD "YES - 35th Aniversary Concert". After inserting the disk, a welcome to Windows Medai Player 11 window opened. This was the first music or video I have tried to play since the desktop lock-up/freeze-up problem I was having prior to the system restore. As soon as I completed the set up and hit the "Finish" button, WHAM! locked up again.

I think the WMP11 software may be related to the problem? But how can I know.......I'm in construction.........NOT COMPUTERS! I think I'll go get my SAW-ZALL (that's a RECIPROCATING SAW FOR THOSE OF YOU ..."IN COMPUTERS") and see if I can resolve this issue my way. I hate computers..........

By the way I have Vista 64bit OS, still under warranty.

I believe some hardware might be suspected. eg. Realtek's audio drivers and network controllers. Have Microsoft tested this supplier? I'm using DELL Vostro 1310, the music playback is terrible. And noticed many times when try to update Realtek relative drivers or whatever, the system got problem. My the other notebook by HP/Compaq has gone, but again the audio controller is from Realtek, the music/media playback was even worse. Both are Vista Version.

I'm no computer whizz and my machine has just locked up and I am in athe middle of an assignment and v. unhappy. The 'remedy means absolutely nothing to me!!

My computer freezes all the time when using Email, Event viewer etc. The taskmanager comes on after ctrl-alt-del but does not react on anything. Only a shutdown can be done after another ctrl-alt-del.

But the system works fine after canceling a shutdown. I get the option to cancel whenever programs are active that forces a conformation of closing.
Does anybody has a clue on this? The Save mode does not have the freezing issue. I am using Vista 64, home edition on a I7-920 (Dell Computer).
