    What does this error in Event Viewer mean??


    Good morning,

    I hope I am in the right forum for this question.

    I have only had this new computer with Windows 7 Pro for a little more than a week and this morning after reading one of your tutorials I finally found out how to get to and read Event Viewer in Win7.

    While exploring my Event Viewer I discovered the following warning and I am curious if this is something I should be worried about?

    Any information would be appreciated.

    Thanks and regards,

    yowanvista,

    Thank you for your prompt reply.

    I never saw this warning in the 7+ years I used XP so I thought it would be wise to check it out. I tried 'googling' it but sometimes the sites found provide more information than my 'aging mind' can process.

    Because of your answer I feel much better.

    Thanks and regards,
