    when i check my event viewer, under administrative events, i have 2 errors on startup. one is an error about missing parallel port, which is right, another one is about a WMI error and am not sure what it is caused by. does anybody have this WMI error in event viewer when starting up the computer. i am not getting this from any error messages

    I have the same error listed for every time I've turned on my computer. Under 'general' the description provided is:

    Event filter with query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "Win32_Processor" AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace "//./root/CIMV2" because of error 0x80041003. Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected.

    I clicked "Event Log Online Help" and the page it provided mentioned that "Event ID 10 is logged in the Application log after you install Windows Vista Service Pack 1" and provided this link for resolving the problem. I have yet to try the solution given, as I'm a bit too busy at the moment.

    i have searched around and i think that the error can be safely ignored
