WIA Timeout

[Graham]

Good-day

Currently,I am running Windows XP Professional and
everytime I access 'My Computer', I have to wait for a
while before the list of drives etc are displayed. The
following error is occuring in the system log (in event
viewer) everytime this occurs:
The server {A1F4E726-8CF1-11D1-BF92-0060081ED811} did not
register with DCOM within the required timeout.

For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

The details from the Microsoft says that you should Check
that the application is configured properly.

The item(A1F4E726-8CF1-11D1-BF92-0060081ED811) that it is
complaining about is Windows Image Acquisition (WIA).
This service is already started.

I should also mention that when you open up the WIA
service in the Services list it gives you the following
error when you select the 'Dependencies' tab:
"Interface: Class not registered"

I would appreciate it if someone could assist me with
resolving this issue.

Regards

Graham

I have had a look at this, however, I do not have any
devices attached. Furthermore, I have stopped the service
and restarted (Service is set to Manual).The problem still
occurs.

WIA is dependent upon RPC and should appear in dependencies. Do you have
Remote Procedure Call started in Services? Check out BlackViper site for
proper Service settings

solution.

faulty cameradriver or a scanner. I removed the scanner (pulled out
the usb plug ) and there she goes
