OK here is a new one with this Win2k Pro:
when inserting a cd in my HP8100i CD-R I started gettin this Event Message 3101 : unable to read io control information from NBT device.
I go to the Win2k Knowledge base and I read this:
symptoms:
Windows 2000 may record the following event message in the Application log after every reboot:
Event Type: Error
Event Source: perfctrs
Event Category: None
Event ID: 3101
Date: boot_date
Time: boot_time
User: N/A
Computer: SYSTEM
Description: Unable to read IO control information from NBT device.
CAUSE:
The Windows 2000 TCP/IP performance counters (Perfctrs.dll) are attempting to extract I/O control information from a network device, but no network device (network adapter, modem, and so on) is present in the system.
This problem can also occur when the performance counters attempt to extract I/O control information, but the network stack has not completed loading. This is a timing issue and does not necessarily indicate a problem.
Resolution
To eliminate the event message you can safely disable the TCP/IP performance counter by following these steps:
Run the Exctrlst.exe utility from the Microsoft Windows 2000 Resource Kit.
NOTE: For information about Windows 2000 Resource Kit, go to the following Microsoft Web site:
Windows 2000 Resource Kits
Locate and then click the following extensible performance counter entry in the list:
TCPIP Perfctrs.dll
Click to clear the Performance counters enabled check box for that counter only.
Quit the utility, and then reboot the system.
After you restart the computer, the event entry should not appear. This has no effect on system performance or usability, even if networking is enabled in the future.
NOTE: You can also install Microsoft Loopback Adapter on the computer to try and resolve this issue.
