I get the following error every time I start up my computer.
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7000
Date: 11/5/2005
Time: 10:13:01 AM
User: N/A
Computer: ULTIMATEX3
Description:
The PfModNT service failed to start due to the following error:
The system cannot find the file specified.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
*****
From what I am able to determine, PfModNT.sys file resides in the
C:\windows\system32\drivers and the C:\Program
Files\Creative\SBAudigy2ZS\Program\WDM\Win2k_XP folders.
It is a file by creative (soundblaster) and the file description states:
PCI/ISA Device Information Service.
I am unable to determine anywhere (including creative's support site) what
is causing it and how to remedy it. I have very few startup items running
and occasionally my creative volume control does not appear in my task bar.
At other times, my default settings (5.1 surround sound) revert to 2.1. I
have had no luck yet on the creative support site, and was wondering if
anyone else has run into this error or has a clue on how to fix it.
I must also add that it always, immediately follows the following warning
(and I don't know if they are related):

Any help would be appreciated
