I have been getting this error for a while. It is making my machine crash.

Type Error
Source DCOM
Event 10016
User Local Service

I click on the link the I get

Product: Windows Operating System
Event ID: 10016
Source: DCOM
Version: 5.2
Symbolic Name: EVENT_COM_ACCESS_DENIED_IN_SERVER_ACTIVATION_OR_LAUNCH_PERMISSION
Message: The %1 permission settings do not grant %2 %3 permission for the COM Server application with CLSID %4 to the user %5\%6 SID (%7). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.

%1 = machine-default, application-specific; %2 = local, remote; %3 = launch, activation; %4 = ; %5 = /; %6 = .


Explanation
A program, the Clsid displayed in the message, tried to start the DCOM server by using the DCOM infrastructure. Based on the security ID (SID), this user does not have the necessary permissions to start the DCOM server.


User Action
Verify that the user has the appropriate permissions to start the DCOM server.


I have attemped to fix the problem but can not find the correct file.
Can any one help please. The same fault is comming up on another machine that I have.

The fault is related to permisions of the DCOM Server. what ever that is.
:confused:
 
I was getting a heap of these errors in Event Viewer, the only thing I can put it down to is Firefox, as it mentions something about DCOM when you install it. Are you sure it's what's actually causing the crashed as I didn't have anyother symptons.

This is the message that I am getting in the event viewer.

I do not use Firefox.

So I do not know what else is causing the problem other when I play BF2 it crashes all the time so I have stopped playing it.

I had BF2 installed on both machines, I reinstalled one machine without BF2 & is still happens.
