Take a look
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nahx5kQXB4 I've been getting these for a long long time now. And it kicks out my sound. I then have to reboot my computer for the sound to come back. If anyone can explain what these messages are, I'd appreciate it. And I had just rebooted my computer so I wasn't running any programs. They just APPEAR. And as you can see for yourself, one just vanished in one second. Very confusing. Thanks to anyone who has experienced this and who can tell me what I need to do to correct this. Melody

Try typing that window error # into Google...and see what comes up. That is what I do.
It might be malware that just looks like a windows screen. I hope Jo will be along for you soon...she is very good with this stuff!

I got the same situation with Win7, but I wouldn't try it on XP and you wouldn't like to either! It was an update that Microsoft rolled out themselves.
You may have to go into the system registry and delete about 8 lines, if it is a similar thing. I would try http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows Then select the right operating system, and in the question box type in a good deal of the error (with quotes on either side).

I wonder if your Windows is looking for device: your camcorder?
a new printer? some "device". If you don't disconnect it properly, when you reboot, your system may be still looking for it? Your error message did say "device" in it? this just occurred to me when I plugged my camera in to download some pictures.

I can't read the error msg very clearly.
I can read the part on one of them that says something like... "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access the item" I think that's what it says. Hard to see... edited to add. I would run a virus scan first. I searched this error and there appears to be a large number of reasons for the message to appear. 2nd one mentions exe. Exe files are used to install and run programs and routines.
