Impossible to start and open the event viewer.

I have Windows Vista (SP1) currently and am having some problems with the event viewer.

Whenever I try to run the observer of events, either through the program or the elevated command prompt, MMC pushes me to get approval to open.

Once opened, an error message appears indicating "MMC cannot initialize the snap-in" with the only option to hit being 'Okay '.
I love the event viewer in order to keep track of my system and wonder if there is any means possible to get this corrected and resolved.
Any help is appreciated!

Hello

You did changes to the computer before the show?

Check if the problem persists with the different user account.

I suggest you to proceed to the next method.

Method 1: Run System File Checker (SFC) scan on your computer to fix this.

SFC analyzes and verifies the versions of all protected system files after you restart your computer.

Check the link for more information to do the same below:

How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

Restart the computer and check.

Method 2: If the problem persists, I suggest you to open in safe mode with networkevent viewer.

See the link below to start your computer in safe mode

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

Method 3: If the problem resolves itself into safe mode with network, perform the clean boot. Clean boot helps eliminate any driver or software conflicts. This is because as the usual startup programs as well as non-Microsoft services are not started in a clean boot configuration.

How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

After you perform a clean boot, restart your computer and check.

Note: After you perform a clean boot, perform step 7: reset the computer to start as usual of the above article.

  • I just had a phone call from a person claiming to be microsoft saying that I had pressing problems and want me to open the event viewer... was that microsoft really do that?

    It was a real person from Microsoft or a marketing attempt? The person named name and my address (I know doesn't mean anything) and says that I have problems with viruses etc. download on my computer

    Hi Elizabeth,.

    It is definitely a scam any.  Microsoft did not communicate people this way.  Ignore them - hang up on them.  In addition to not let them connect to your system, do not allow direct you to a Web site or download anything they suggest - it can be worse than just a marketing effort and an attempt to infect, hack, get information about identity theft or otherwise affect your system (and it may be an effort to marketing as well to infect and then you sell a product to remove infections - which may or may not) not work and most likely the product itself is an infection still further or hacking).

    Good job on caution and check first.  Play well!  You yourself have potentially saved a lot of grief.  They are the same type of thing by e-mail, and Microsoft is not communicate with people that way either about this sort of thing, then ignore and junk all these messages and DO NOT open the attachments to these messages.  Just remove them completely.

    Good luck and best wishes!

  • Impossible to start and install the OS on VMWare Workstation 9

    Hello

    I installed Workstation 9.

    When I tired to run CentOS 6.5 64bit.iso, I got the following error message:

    Intel E1000 network startup

    Client MAC ADDR: 00 0c...

    Received E53:No boot PXE-file

    PXE - MOF: exit Intel PXE ROM

    Operating system not found

    I reinstalled Workstation 9 and they run as administrator but the problem is the same.

    Attached screenshot of the Virtual Machine settings.

    TIA!

    PXE boot is the last option in the boot order, if no other boot device is present. Please check that the CentOS installation (ISO) image that you are using is bootable.

    You can also try hitting the ESC key for the boot selection screen after you start the virtual machine. You may need to add a start delay to the virtual machine configuration (.vmx) file, if you are not able to press ESC fairly quickly (for example bios.bootDelay = "5000" for a lead time of 5 seconds).

  • I built a new system. Transferred to the hard drive and video card, but everything else is new. Restart Windows as it begins to start. I can get into safe mode and found event id 7026 and event id 7001 in the event viewer.

    As mentioned above, this is a new system, but with a more older IDE hard drive with windows xp pack 2 service (I think). When you first start, it says that windows is not stopped correctly and asks me to choose whether to start it normally or without failure or last known working configuration. When I choose to start windows normally, it will load up to a point. The screen of Windows Xp will come with the slide bar. It will then restart. When I choose to start in safe mode, a bunch of 32 file system scrolls upwards on the screen. I don't remember if it of normal or not. He takes over in SafeMode but. I went to the event viewer and got the following errors.

    I did find something online that contains all the system boot or start specific drivers. Windows and harddrive was working in another computer just before he was switched. Let me know if you need other information.

    Thank you.

    First of all you are missing probably a number of device drivers, particularly the network card driver and the driver of the motherboard.  Use your XP disk to perform a repair installation.  This should go a long way toward you're going to get.  If your new box has a driver disc that should help a lot.  You can't port XP perfectly the way you did.   It usually requires a repair installation to fix the hardware abstraction layer.

  • Firefox does not account settings to open the home page to start and open rather the previous tabs

    Opening of Firefox, the browser displays my previous session, despite my selection 'display the homepage' or 'show white screen' on the opening.

    You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder (a detailed list of the system shows that you have) which defines the pref browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once to true.

    (I noticed that the mozillaZine knowledge base is down at the time of this posting)

    The user.js file will be present if you or a other software created this file and normally will not present.
    The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

    You can remove the user.js file if you do not create this file yourself.

    You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:

    Windows hides certain default file extensions.
    Among them .html and .ini and .js and .txt, and you can see only a file name without file extension.
    You can check the file extension (type) in the file properties in Windows Explorer via the context menu.

  • Errors and warnings in the event viewer on the new laptop

    I have a HP 2000 Notebook PC with the product number QE279UA #ABA

    Bought and started using it at the end of December 2011.

    -Since then, I had immediate problems with the WiFi adapter (HP tried to solve the problem by sending a new network card, but the problem does not present yet so I never installed)

    -He had 3 cases where the laptop closed by himself for reasons unknown (he didn't feel not enough for overheating hot, and with it being new, I don't see it being already a reason), tonight being one of them, so when I saw somewhere online read the event viewer, I see as since 22 December 2011 I had 279 errors, 596 warnings. I do not understand one of them of course except the 3 criticals hence my laptop a intestinal shutdown. I have a feeling that these numbers are not good, given only to being less than 2 months old, but I don't know exactly what to ask about what to do. I wish I could have someone to look rather than try to describe the problems through e-mails and forums, but I don't have to spend hundreds of dollars to bring to Geek Squad or the other. How should I proceed?

    Thanks for any info.

    Warnings are normal and can be ignored.

    Mistakes can happen, I have 42 in the last 7 days, but my system works fine. Windows manages quite well the errors, and generally, they are not a problem, but will record in all cases. It takes a trained eye to sort through this and understand if there is a serious problem or not.

    Criticism can be a problem, but looks like they are at the unexpected stop, so no useful information can be drawn from those.

    If you go to control panel (display the icon) and click Action Center, that's where things that go wrong get reported you, if it is clear from all the messages, then you can ignore the event viewer.

    You have a problem with the unexpected stops, they are very difficult to unravel by the normal user and needs professional diagnosis.

    You are under warranty with HP? If you are, you can contact HP on the problem, make sure you have your personal files backed up before instructions from HP to resolve the shutdown problem.

  • Errors and warnings in Event Viewer in the field of applications on a laptop running Windows 7.

    I receive a number of warning and an error message in the event viewer in the field of applications on a laptop running Windows 7.  Is there a way to fix this or fix another way?

    Here are some notes on the event viewer reports that can help you. When you have a lot of mistakes, you need to focus on system errors and warnings, even if it's the applications that are giving you grief. Problems with the first sorting system can do the easier application problems. Note the time that the computer is started last and deal first with those at the beginning of the boot. Correct previous errors can be solved later.

    1. normally, when an error occurs on your computer looking in Event Viewer should be your starting point to find a solution. More related system errors are recorded and get an exact copy of the relevant report is important. Unfortunately, is not easy to understand reports and most of the users computer need help with their interpretation. I have to say later interpretation.

    2 Event Viewer includes four major newspapers in Windows. These are application, security and system with Applications and Service logs as a source more details... For purposes of troubleshooting system is by far the most important.

    3. to access the system log, select Start, Control Panel, administrative tools, Event Viewer, in the list on the left of the window select Windows and the system logs. Place the cursor on the system, right click and select filter current log. Check the front of the error and click OK and see you only reports errors. Click the Date and time column header to sort. You may need to click a second time to see the last report above.

    4. a tip for posting copies of error reports! Run Event Viewer and double-click the error you want to copy. Click the button copy on the general tab allows you to place a copy in the Clipboard and close Event Viewer. Now start your message and paste it into the body of the message. Make sure that it is the first dough right out of the event viewer.

    5. He cautioned against three types of reports, information, and reports errors. In most situations, it is the error reports that offer the best information but sometimes WARNING reports provide useful clues.

    6. all reports have stamps date and hour and when troubleshooting, it is important to focus on the latest reports. Reports of studies from the point when the computer is started, and then check if a similar report appeared in the previous session. If errors do not repeat investigation as to why they happen is wasted effort.

    7. in the individual reports the most important information is the event ID and Source such as these help when looking for help on the internet. The description is just as important and copy the exact text to use as search criteria greatly helps achieve better results when using Google. Not paraphrase descriptions when other people asking for help.

    8. for Vista and Windows 7 Google is the best source of information. Search for selected text in the Description part of the report (not of the particular words of phrases) that "this exact word or phrase" Gets the best results. Focus on Social Technet and Microsoft Answers reports in the last 12 months. Look elsewhere if a response is difficult to find.

    If you want to use the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer to view photos (personally, I like free IrfanView better) AND it is NOT listed as a program "recommended" or under "Other programs", follow the instructions below:

    in Windows Explorer:

    • On the Tools menu, click folder... Options
    • Click the File Types tab.
    • Scroll down to the extension that you like, for example "JPG".
    • Press the restore button, if it exists.
