Guest talgam Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 I have received a red X on the left hand pane of the Application log in the event viewer. It won't display the application log on the right. I am not allowed to do a destructive restore because extra programs that were installed, we installed by a third party and he doesn't have contact with them. He does not have a Windows CD because it has the recovery sector on the hard drive. Is there any way that this problem can be fixed. I have not come across this problem before and I can use all the help I can get on this problem.

Please clarify what you mean. If my guess is wrong then try to access the event viewer by doing the following: Open a Notepad, customize or minimize to the taskbar as you will need it later for this step to copy the error message on it. Open a run command and type in: eventvwr.msc click [OK] you will get the Event viewer control Panel. click on each of these: Application System Security Look in the right Pane/window for error message with red (X) or Yellow exclamation mark /!\ , double click each one to get more info about the causer. On the Event error properties message you will see: Up Arrow Down arrow Two pages Click on the two pages to copy the error message then bring up the Notepad you opened earlier and right click on the first line and select Paste from the list, this will paste the error message on a Notepad. Please don't duplicate the error message one of each kind will be sufficient.
