In my Windows XP system event log, I see an error at every boot up saying:

 

"The USB Flatbed Scanner service failed to start due to the following error: The

service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no

enabled devices associated with it."

 

Source: Service Control Manage

Event ID: 7000

 

I do not have a USB Flatbed Scanner. There is no "USB Flatbed Scanner" service

listed in the Services list. Searching with Google has not revealed anything

useful.

 

Could this startup error have any adverse effect (like making Windows slower to

boot) and if so, is there any way I stop this.

Thanks for the suggestions.

 

I have installed latest chipset drivers for my MB. I have also tried individually

updating the USB controllers as you suggested, but it says I already have the most

recent drivers.

 

A BIOS update was available, but only to resolve an issue with resuming from

suspend mode. As I don't have that problem I am wary of updating the BIOS, as the

last time I tried to update the BIOS of a PC it turned into an unbootable brick.

Do you happen to have a printer? Is it an "All in One" model?

Perhaps I should have added it is a network device, not USB.

Then it is possible that the PhotoSmart "drivers" is the cause of the

scanner problem. Have you checked for an updated drivers.
