Interpreting event viewer logs

what's the best approach to interpret event viewer error logs?
I'm having problems and they seem to get worse. I can't quite get my head around the best way to diagnose.
I have seen these errors:
Power Kernel
Open gl error
hard disk has a bad block
It's quite dizzying to decipher things.

Whew .... I think issue(s) are resolved.
I suspect initially I had an audio driver conflict causing freeze ups.

Next I got confused on my onboard Marvel raid needs and installed an extra driver.
I uninstalled but crapola remained and I used Driveseeper to clean things.
So far so good! Wow ... I can actually edit today!

Typographical error found in Event Viewer log for Event 8003. The source is "bowser" not browser.

I found a typographical error in the Event Viewer log.
Error 5/19/2014 1:07:52 AM bowser 8003 None
The body of the message is typical of the NetBIOS messages regarding master browser network control...
The master browser has received a server announcement from the computer...
Even though this is not critical, it should be updated at some point.

it is deliberate, and, has been so, for 20years...

Kereros error in event viewer logs.

Hi All,
We have configure Vintella SSO on XI3.1 previously and for some reasons now we have changed to NTLM SSO but still we are observing kerberos error in event viewer logs.
Error1 : Kerberos error was received on log on session , client time and server time etc.
Error 2: Kerberos client received KRB_AP_Error_Modified server host/fully qualified name .THis indicate that password encrypts the kerberos service ticket different than that on target server commonly this is due to identically named machine account in the target realm and the client releams.Please contact your adimistrator.
Please help.
THanks....

That's a Microsoft Error coming from a Microsoft log, I can't be sure what's causing it, you need to consult Microsoft.
Usually in their errors the service account that generated it (if by a service account) is one of the details or in the error message. You may need to stop running something with a service account...

How to save all event viewer log files in Windows 7 Professional

Hello,
I would like to save all Event Viewer logs from my Windows 7 Professional computer and be able to view them from another computer. Currently I can only save one log at a time. Please let me know how I can save all Event Viewer logs
(Windows Logs, Applications and Service Logs, etc.).
Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason,
There is no idea to save all categories log.
It's recommend you ask in Official Scripting Guys forum for further help:

Windows 8.1 event viewer logs.

I am looking for the windows 8.1 event viewer logs and settings, online search fails to produce answer, and suggested .msc commands are not valid.

Hi @butface ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue with your Windows 8.1 and the event viewer. Here is how to open Event Viewer by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Security, clicking Administrative Tools, and then double-clicking Event Viewer.
I would be happy to assist if needed as there are many models of HP Notebook ,
I would need the model number. How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Please let me know.
Thanks.

How to interpret Event Viewer reference to "\Device\Harddisk3\DR3"

My Win 7 Event Viewer is showing error messages saying
> The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Harddisk3\DR3.
and I need to relate that to a particular drive. Is "DR3" = "Disk 3" in the Disk Management console? If not, how do I determine the unit responsible for the error?

I think you should forget about the "DR3" and just look at "Harddisk3" instead. On this computer the Harddisk number corresponds to the Disk number in Disk Management.
Looking in both "Globals" and "Devices" in Winobj, I think that \Device\Harddisk3 is a namespace and DR3 seems to represent the device (Harddisk3) within that namespace.
As noticed by Fleet Command in the afore-mentioned thread, removing and replugging a USB drive increments the "DR" number - for example, \Device\Harddisk7\DR7 becomes \Device\Harddisk7\DR8 and then \Device\Harddisk7\DR9 etc.
Also, my System drive (\Device\Harddisk0\DR0) and my RAM drive (\Device\Harddisk5\DR0) both use "DR0"
Looking at the partition entries for all drives in "Devices", Partition0 seems to always be a symbolic link to the drive itself eg HardDisk3\Partition0 points to Harddisk3\DR3 (try double clicking on Partition0). Also, GPT drives seem to have another
extra partition listed. For example, in the Devices screenshot below Partition 0 through 5 are listed. After discounting Partiton0, that still leaves 5 partitions. The drive actually only has 4 partitions. All my GPT drives are the same - they show an extra
partition - yet all the MBR drives show the "correct" number (but maybe there is another explanation).
Anyway, most of my drives have a unique number of partitions and, at least on this computer, at this moment, the "Harddisk" number corresponds with the drive index as shown the left hand side of the bottom half of Disk Management - ie \Device\Harddisk3
corresponds to Disk 3
Double clicking on PhysicalDrive3 in the Globals section of Winobj (as below)
Brings you here

Multiple Event Viewer Error Ids, Corrupt Catalogs, System not working right. Please help.

Since I could not find a list of the Event Ids that was accurate at all or not too general as to be useless and Microsoft won't let us know how to fix these ourselves without having a programming degree, I am begging for help from anyone who can help
me get my computer working right again. I have some important things to get done which I can't do without my computer working. I have tried to get what I could get but I am blocked from many files which makes it difficult to get info. Please help. I appreciate
any help I can get. Thank you,

Please provide a copy of your System Information file. Type System Information in the Search Box above the start Button and press the ENTER key
(alternative is Select Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, System Information). Select File, Export and give the file a name noting where it is located. The system creates a new System Information file each time system information is accessed.
You need to allow a minute or two for the file to be fully populated before exporting a copy. Please upload to your Sky Drive, share with everyone and post a link here. Please say if the report has been obtained in safe mode.
Please upload and share with everyone copies of your System and Application logs from your Event Viewer to your Sky Drive and post a link here.
To access the System log select Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Event Viewer, from the list in the left side of the window select Windows
Logs and System. Place the cursor on System, select Action from the Menu and Save All Events as (the default evtx file type) and give the file a name. Do the same for the Applications log. Do not provide filtered files.
For help with Sky Drive see paragraph 9.3:
http://www.gerryscomputertips.co.uk/MicrosoftCommunity1.htm
Some Event Viewer reports are generated solely because the computer is in safe mode or safe mode with networking. You have at least one example of this in your long list. If you do not see the same report for a time when
the computer was in normal mode then it can be disregarded.
You will find some general advice on interpreting Event Viewer reports here:

Hope this helps, Gerry

How do you change the Event Viewer archive location in Server 2008 R2?

We're wanting to redirect the security and system event viewer logs to the D:\ on a Server 2008 R2 box
We've got the current logs to save there, however all archived system/security logs are still being saved on the c:\ in their default location in %windir%\system32... and killing the OS partition.
I can write something up in PoSh and schedule it, but I'd rather use any built-in capabilities first...
I've taken a peek in the HKLM\Services\CurrentControlSet... hive where the event viewer behavior is configured and do not see an option to set a path for the archive location...

Unfortunately, you cannot customize the location of archived event logs in Windows. The logs will always be archived to %windir%\system32\Winevt\Logs\Archive-xxxxxx
There'd be some scripts can help you automatically archived logs to another location. You can find them here: http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/site/search?f%5B0%5D.Type=RootCategory&f%5B0%5D.Value=security

Windows is Scanning and repairing drive... (- Errors in Event Viewer)

Long post, please be patient... :)
I have a fairly new (purchased 8/2013) Lenovo ThinkPad T431s with Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit (updated from 8.0 -> 8.1). It has a very tricky error coming basically 8 / 10 boots:
Windows is Scanning and repairing drive...
Error details from Windows Event Viewer (a new similar error appears on every boot to event viewer):
A corruption was discovered in the file system structure on volume \?\Volume{f62db2cf-efe4-4b55-a3f7-0e7db991a984}.
A file on the volume is no longer reachable from its parent directory. The parent file reference number is 0x2000000000002. The name of the parent directory is "". The parent index attribute is ":$I30:$INDEX_ALLOCATION". The file reference
number of the file that needs to be reconnected is 0x400000003db80. There may be additional files on the volume that also need to be reconnected to this parent directory.
What has been done 1st trying to fix that:
SSD disk has been changed (image from previous SSD copied back) ->
no solution, error remains
chkdsk /F /R -> no solution, error remains
SFC /scannow -> no solution, error remains
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth -> no solution, error remains after a few boots
TRIED using Windows 8.1 "Update & Recovery -> Refresh Your PC without affecting your files" -> Inserted the Lenovo "Operating System Recovery Disk Windows 8 Pro (OEM Activation 3.0 Required)" BUT Windows did not accept
that DVD claiming "The media inserted is not valid"... ???
Ended up calling Lenovo Support and they instructed me to order the Recovery DVD from
Lenovorecovery.com -> Unfortunatelly Windows does not recognice the DVD(s)...
mountvol returns:
\\?\Volume{4d337687-0033-42f7-8a8e-b6968b533cb3}\

The chkdsk on the dirty volume
\\?\Volume{f62db2cf-efe4-4b55-a3f7-0e7db991a984}\ returned:
The type of the file system is NTFS.

Partition 5 Recovery 350 MB 147 GB
Partition 6 Recovery 19 GB 148 GB
Questions:
1) Are my Partitions OK, haven't "touched" anything?
2) Excluded the dirty volume from boot checking with chkntfs /x
-> still the Error appears in Event viewer log (but Scanning is skipped/not shown anymore during the boot).
What is causing the error?
3) Why do I have three (3) recovery partitions?

What has happened in the past days:
A) Lenovo on-site-Support changed the motherboard -> had no impact on the error (which I expected).
B) I found
instructions how to manually create USB Flash stick with a booting Custom (OEM) Recovery Image.
C) Booted with USB and performed "Refresh your PC without affecting your files."
D) Windows was refreshed but...

Still the error remains (Windows scanning and repairing drive \?\Volume{f62db2cf-efe4-4b55-a3f7-0e7db991a984} on each and every boot.

My Microsoft WSUS Update Services Issues/Event Viewer Service Issues

Hello,
So yesterday I began investigating why my PC's that were pointed to the WSUS weren't recieveing patches for their particular group. I checked to make sure it was approved and the client was in my client group. When I went to continue my troubleshooting today
Update Services within the WSUS role gives me an Error: Connection Error. My Clients when I force them to check for updates also fail. I went to review my Event Viewer logs and it tells me to start the Event Viewer services. When I try to start the
services it tells me Error 5 Access Is Denied. I've verfied that the policies allow my domain admin account access to the modify services and I've also rebooted it, still no joy.
Any help anyone can offer with these series of issues would be greatly appreciated!
-Russ Engelman
P.S. I'm not very coinfident with registry edits so if you suggest I try to modify the registry, please make it barney style. Thanks.

It seems these are two different problems, with Event viewer and with WSUS.
1. Did this system worked recently (correctly) or it is new one?
2. Make sure that you are logged as domain administrator (or better as buil-in AD administrator with highest priviledges.)
3. Generally services can depend on another processes (services). If these processes do no run, then you would not start process that is depending on these services.
4. WSUS: Clients could not receive (on demand) updates, when there was no initial synchronization.
5. WSUS: Make sure that GPO and computer group are set correctly
6. WSUS: Detect and reconnect clients with wuauclt
7. WSUS: Share your configuration here as well as reports.

MSE Event viewer errors

Hi,
recently I see two errors in the event viewer at every login. I think they are related to MSE. I already reformated my system but the errors occur right after I install MSE. The errors indicate that some rights are missing, but I use an administrator account,
therefore access should be granted. Please note that this is a fresh windows 7 installation without any third party software. I just install windows (no OEM), every driver, sp1, all windows updates (also recommended). Then I install MSE. After rebooting (into
an admin account) the errors appear.
I tried to reproduce the errors in a virtual machine with only win7 installed and every (also recommended) update. At first the errors didn't appear. Then I reverted the VM back to the point before I install MSE (which is after every update is applied)
and tried it again. I expected that these errors won't be there because I did just the same as before. But this time (after MSE was installed again) I rebooted multiple times and the errors appeared. I tried several other scenarios (admin/limited account etc)
but wasn't able to track down the actual cause. I think that MSE is working despite these error messages. However, when I see that the network inspection is not working, I'm getting worried.
Errors:
1) Event ID 7006 The ScRegSetValueExW call failed for Start with the following error:
Access is denied.
2) Event ID 3002 Microsoft Antimalware Real-Time Protection feature has encountered an error and failed.
Feature: Network Inspection System
Error Code: 0x80070005
Error description: Access is denied.
Reason: The system is missing updates that are required for running Network Inspection System. Install the required updates and restart the computer
Thank you!

P6N Sli Platinum event viewer error

On my new P6N Sli Platinum mainboard, every time I boot up I get the following error in the event viewer log:
"The ForceWare IP service service failed to start due to the following error:
The system cannot find the path specified. "
I think this has to do with Nvidia network drivers. The network seems to work ok, although I have by default two network controlelrs: one labelled "1394 Net Adapter" and another "NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller". Which of these that handles the actual connection seems to change randomly, but it doesn't seem to affect the performance.
I'm running Windows XP Pro SP2 with all the updates from winupdate.
Does anyone else have the same issue?

I still get this error in event viewer each time I start up. I went to administrative tools->services and tried to enable the Forceware IP Service manually: system cannot find the path specified. The path box in the service properties is empty.
After googling I found that the service corresponds to the following executable: nsvcip.exe. This file is not found in my system. Is this normal? Does anyone else of you have this file?
Apart from the error message in event viewer my system is functioning perfectly.

Event viewer filtered log not exported correctly

Hi all,
I have a very strange problem, or better, I'm missing something.
I can open the event viewer and there are many events in there (45'000). I can filter for the last 7 days and this shows me only 1925 events which is correct.
Now, if I click on SAVE FILTERED LOG FILE AS, I can save the file in XML or TXT format (or others). It's not important the format because the export is incorrect! What I mean is that once the file has been exported to a TXT or others file's format, it contains
just some events, in this case maybe 50-60 events, not more! The strange thing is that in that file I can see ONLY the events from the most recent day in the filter (right now the 14 of june).
Now the funny part: if I save THE SAME LOG as .XML, it doesn't show all the events, but more than the TXT file (in this case, it shows until the 2nd of june), but the last event on the filtered event viewer, is on 13 may.
I hope somebody can help me, and excuse me for my explanation.

Hi ripp3r,
Thank you for your post.
I test to save event log following your description with same result. When I save log to evtx format file, the log show correctly.
Then I find KB2417105 (for Windows 2008) to express that logs are truncated because the saving event log operation is not synchronized appropriately with the fetching-event operation.
When I installed the KB2417105, event log saved to txt file successful.
If your server OS is Windows 2008 R2, please install
KB981466.
If there are more inquiries on this issue, please feel free to let us know.
Regards,
Rick Tan
