I rarely shut my pc off; I normally log off windows to the welcome screen. I
have my monitor set to shut off after 30 minutes. I've not had any problems
with this until recently
I entered my password one morning, and got the message " Loading your
personal settings" as usual, the cursor displays hourglass so I know it's
"busy", then suddenly, the screen kind of blinks momentarily, the hour glass
is gone, and I have to reenter my password. This time it actually logs on to
my desktop. I check my Event Viewer and under Applications Is the following
error:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: EventSystem
Event Category: (50)
Event ID: 4614
Date: 1/13/2007
Time: 5:43:39 PM
User: N/A
Computer: OWNER-381C340C5
Description:
The COM+ Event System detected an inconsistency in its internal state. The
assertion "GetLastError() == 122L" failed at line 201 of
d:\qxp_slp\com\com1x\src\events\shared\sectools.cp p. Please contact
Microsoft Product Support Services to report this error.

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

Clicking on the "Help and Support" link results in the Normal message: We're
sorry;
there is no additional information about this issue" blah, blah, blah. I
really do not understand why microsoft puts the link there, as 99% of the
time that I click on that link, I get the "We're sorry" message. Sorry, just
a bit frustrated.
Anyway, if I reboot and log on, I have no problem. I, however, do not want
to be forced to either shut down or reboot my pc every time I want to log on.
This all seems to coincide with the 1/10/07 windows updates. I can't be 100%
positive, as I
restored my system from a backup after this happened a couple of times. I
did the windows updates once again ( KB929969(VML), KB890830(windows
malicious software removal), and KB915597( definition update for windows
defender), and the error has returned. I uninstalled KB929969, but am still
getting this error. Could just be a "kwinky dink", I don't know.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I have verified that since I installed KB929969 my screensavers won't turn on
and my monitor won't go into idle. I restored to an earlier date and
reinstalled several times and this update appears to be the problem. Anyone
have a fix? Thanks.

I have definitely traced this to KB929969. When I uninstall 929969, the
problem disappears. Anyone have a clue? I hate to leave a "critical" issue
unpatched.

You might want to check the posts in and post to the experts in the windows
update newsgroup.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Rock. I've searched
microsoft.com, as well as Google, and have not been able to find a thing.

Hello Hazyday.

I have this same problem. Question - Do you have an ATI Graphics Driver on
your system?

Thanks for your reply.
