HID service

[Guest]

I recently bought an ATI remote control unit for my XP
pro (SP1) box, but after installing it, I got an error
message telling me that it was couldn't run due to being
unable to find the correct module.
I rummaged around in my services and found that the Human
interface device service was also unable to start due to:

Error 126: The specified module could not be found.

If anyone could help me with this, I would be most
grateful.

The following error will occur if any of the three files (hidserv.dll,
mouhid.sys and mouclass.sys) are missing.

Could not start the Human Interface Device Access service on Local
Computer. Error 126: the specified module could not be found

Extract hidserv.dll, mouhid.sys and mouclass.sys from drivers.cab in the
Windows XP CD to "<Systemroot>\Windows\System32\" to fix the issue.

1.Insert Windows XP Setup CD.
2.Browse to <CD-ROM>:\i386\drivers.cab
3.Double click the drivers.cab file. The compressed files in the Cab file
will be listed.
4.Copy the three files to <SystemRoot>\windows\system32\. Reboot the
computer.

The Human Interface Device Access service will then be started.
