| | Another Event Viewer bug...? Or an unusual kind of feature [Vista HP] Try this: view the System log and Filter it - first select All Sources, then untick "volmgr" and "disk" - I get "One or more logs in the query have errors [eh? It's perfectly happy with the logs as long as they aren't filtered] Log: system Error: The specified query is invalid"... Looks like there is an undocumented limit to how many Event Sources can be specified in a query - so you can't (easily) look at the System log by excluding e.g. a single source that is diluting everything else of interest... Thoughts? -- Julian I-Do-Stuff Some Vista stuff, but mostly just Stuff at http://berossus,blogspot.com |

| | Re: Another Event Viewer bug...? It wasn't an entirely idle observation Mick, I was looking for a other events buried in hundreds of "disk errors" due to a USB drive... I just want to suppress one event type...
