Error when connected to the internet

APiON

After I connected to the internet, the following error occurs:

Simple POS Batch Process
SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\VirtualDeviceDrivers. VDD. Virtual
Device Driver format in the registry is invalid.
Choose 'Close' to terminate application.

What cause this, and how can i fix this.

Thanks for any help.

Virtual Device Driver Error Message in 16-Bit MS-DOS Subsystem

The article is pretty straight-forward. You'll need to use regedt32.exe.
regedit.exe cannot create Reg_Multi_Sz strings. You can backup your reg and
create the ERD by going to; Programs|Accessories|System Tools|Backup, then
choose ERD, then if you check the box for "Also backup....", then the reg
will also be backed up to
%windir%\repair\RegBack
leaving the
%windir%\repair\
directory files intact as original installation.

If you need to recreate the VirtualDeviceDrivers key; highlight the key (in
the left-hand pane), then Edit|Delete Then (in the left-hand pane) position
the cursor on the "Control" key, (so you'll be creating directly under
"Control") then Edit|Add Key, then for the "Key Name:"
VirtualDeviceDrivers
You can leave the "Class:" blank Then proceed with steps four through seven.

Make sure your doing this logged on as local administrator.
