I have some errors in the Event Viewer I would like to solve.

dynamic virus protection service failed to start .... cannit find the path
specified - Event ID 7000

the PAR 1284 service failed to start .... cannot find the path specified -
Event ID 7000

the following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load: FsUdf -
Event ID 7026

Thanks in advance for the help! :)
 
Please post complete not partial information.

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double
click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a
button resembling two pages. Click the button and close Event
Viewer.Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of
the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from
Event Viewer.

Hope this helps.

Two of the errors I was able to correct with more research and hand cleaning
the registry. Here is the one that is left:

The Par1284 service failed to start due to the following error:
The system cannot find the path specified.

Also, I have been working with HP on the following two errors. I have
upgraded (flashed) the BIOS per their instructions - successfully :).
However, that did not solve the problem. I suspect that the BIOS is bad, but
they won't tell me that. They gave me instructions to take it to a repair
facility. I am quite capable of installing a new BIOS. Over the past 12+
years, there isn't much I have replaced, upgraded, or built - home PC that is.

Here are the other two errors:

Source: ACPI
Event ID: 4

AMLI: ACPI BIOS is attempting to read from an illegal IO port address
(0x75), which lies in the 0x74 - 0x76 protected address range. This could
lead to system instability. Please contact your system vendor for technical
assistance.

Source: ACPI
Event ID: 5

AMLI: ACPI BIOS is attempting to write to an illegal IO port address (0x74),
which lies in the 0x74 - 0x76 protected address range. This could lead to
system instability. Please contact your system vendor for technical
assistance.

This is a system I use to test applications on Compaq 5BW220

Thanks in advance for your help :)

Hi JustUs

Par1284.sys is a parallel port driver installed by various printers.
Windows is complaining it can't find the file. Have you perhaps
uninstalled a printer or some kind of printing software recently? Some
(ahem) less well-behaved uninstall routines delete the file but leave
the Registry "call" for it behind. . .

If all your printers/printing programs are working correctly, disabling
the Registry entry should stop Windows looking for it and fix the error.
Try looking here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Par1284
(If it's not there, you'll have to search the Registry for it, but
that's the most likely place.) Change the Start value to 4 to disable
it. If everything's still working properly after a few days, it's
probably safe to delete it if you want to, though to be safe, I'd
suggest you export the key to a .reg file first, just in case :-)
Also, I have been working with HP on the following two errors. I have
upgraded (flashed) the BIOS per their instructions - successfully :).

On the other two errors, I think HP is being more than a little naughty
in telling you to pack your PC off to a repair shop :-) This Microsoft
article explains what's happening:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/283649/en-us
You've done all you can do in upgrading the BIOS, and this second
article explains why you may still be getting the messages:
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/system/pnppwr/powermgmt/BIOSAML.mspx
(see particularly the section "Windows XP and Legacy BIOS ASL
Implementations"). Basically XP is allowing the BIOS to do what it wants
but will still flag it in Event Viewer as an error.

You'll notice both these articles are a few years old; HP really must be
aware of the issue. Perhaps you might politely point that out next time
you contact them :-)
 
Thanks Nightowl -
PAR1284 is taken care of.

If I understand you correctly, the ACPI is an error by design, but not a
problem with my system. Is this correct.

Now, if you don't mind me imposing - I have a couple of others. Different
systems.

Evnet ID: 7000
The NEC PCI to USB Enhanced Host Controller service failed to start due to
the following error:
The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it
has no enabled devices associated with it.
**According to Device Manager the Enhanced Controler is VIA. I used to have
a hub that I believe used the NEC drivers.

The following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load:
FsUdf 7026
**Confused about this one when I search the web for answers.

BTW - I am in a cleaning and tweaking mindset. School is out and no students
until September. :D

Thanks again for the answers.
