For some time now I've had a boot-up delay on my PC that I cannot seem to fix
or find the cause for. When I start my PC, I see the BIOS screen for a
split-second, I see the Windows XP Professional Loading screen, then I get a
blank screen for about 60 seconds during which there is little indication
that my PC is doing anything (even the hard drive activity seems
non-existent) before it finally continues loading Windows and comes to the
Logon screen.
Upon reviewing the Event Viewer System Logs, I've found a recurrant event
during every boot. About a minute after the Event Viewer service is started,
the first event listed is this error message:
Source: Service Control Manager
Event ID: 7000
Description:
The Winmodem service failed to start due to the following error:
Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
I've followed the Help and Support Center link, but it hasn't provided much
insight. I did, however, follow one instruction from that link which was to
run an SC Query on the failing service. The resulting WIN32_EXIT_CODE is
1450. I do not know what this indicates, but that is all the software
related data I know how to collect regarding this problem.
I personally don't see how there could be a resource problem. The specs of
my PC are as follows:
CPU: Pentium 4 2.53GHz
Memory: 1.00 Gb of RAM
OS: Windows XP Professional with SP 2 (this problem existed before SP 2)
HD: 114.4 Gb Total, 17.13Gb Free, 4096Mb Paging File
Video: ATI Radeon 9600 XT AGP with 128Mb RAM
If anyone has any clues as to how I can get my PC to load all at once as it
should and eliminate this error situation, I'm all ears. Thanks.
