Event Category: None

The description for Event ID ( 1090 ) in Source ( Userenv ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer.

I have tried searching Google for a while and cant find any clear answers :( I normally get 2 event errors when I reboot, and 10-15 more during the day.

try that
to run the file checker, go to Start Button/Run' and then type in the following


sfc /scannow


then enter............make sure that you have your XP install disk in the CD drive.........
 
Thx for the replies, could someone explain how use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description?

To run the mmc.exe command, open the Run dialog box or go to the command prompt and type:
mmc /a eventvwr.msc /auxsource=<server by IP address, DNS name of NetBIOS name>
Click to expand...

So I use my PC's IP address? Im confused I cant get this command to run or do anything :confused: All it seems to do is open the event viewer?

I have also tried:
From a newsgroup post, from a Microsoft Engineer: "It could be that there is a problem with WMI on this machine. You can try recreating some of the WMI files using the steps below:
1 Stop the Windows Management Instrumentation service.
2 Go to the %SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem\Repository folder.
3. Delete all of the files that are in the %SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem\Repository folder.
4 Restart the computer. The files that were deleted are recreated when the computer restarts.
The Windows Management Instrumentation service will start automatically when you restart the computer".
Click to expand...
But I have no "Repository folder", just snmp and xml folders with no files in them. :confused:

Also tried:
I use this whenever I have this error and it works better than deleting and refreshing the repository:
cd /d %windir%\system32.
regsvr32 /n /I userenv.dll.
cd wbem.
mofcomp scersop.mof.
gpupdate /force
Click to expand...

"regsvr32 /n /I userenv.dll" will not run but "regsvr32 userenv.dll" will.

and neither will

"mofcomp scersop.mof"

So far I'm having no luck in tracking down what the problem is or how to resolve it :(
