Errors in event log.

I seem to have 114 errors in my event log which appear to be recurring ones;

Can anyone shed some light on what issues I have here & how to fix them?

I didn't notice any issues with PC performance, but there's obviously something popping up flags in the event log.

Personally I wouldn't worry unless your getting critical errors.

I'm not too worried about, but at the same time i'd rather they not be there. If it's something which I can fix myself without much hassle i'd like the pesky warnings to go away.

Also, if it's something which is hinting towards a much sinister problem around the corner, i'd like to sort it out before anything happens xD

I literally have no clue what i'm looking at, I tried using their 'Click here to view this issue on our Microsoft help page' or whatever they have, and it told me the page could not be found. I also tried asking Google, and I found a few forum posts without answers, which is slightly odd.

It's quite common to have warnings & errors in event viewer,
I've yet to see a computer that doesn't have any.

Agreed with vanthus on that i have looked at mine before now on different systems that are working perfectly fine and there are numerous errors and warnings but if the system is running fine leave it alone (if it aint broke don't fix it) ;)

I'm fine with them there, so long as there's no underlying problem.

I only have my PC on for around 5-6 hours a day, so it looks like the errors appear everytime I turn the desktop on.

The system startup doesn't appear slow, it certainly doesn't take the 2 minutes or something the event log looked like it was telling me it was.

From off > into windows, it's around 20 seconds at a guess, which would be normal?

I also have no idea what my Intel SSD Cache drive is doing, not sure how I can check if it's working or not as they don't appear in My Computer. What effect exactly should I be seeing from it, or was that more designed for people who run multiple HDDs?

Impression I got before purchasing was it sped up most frequently used programs, but as everything is 10x faster than my old PC anyway, I can't tell if it's doing anything, lol

I would guess that the fact you're in Windows in 20 seconds would be an indication that the SSD was working.

I have a 1TB WD Caviar green and the quickest I've got into Windows was about 40 secs when new. Now it's about a minute.

The event viewer is a program intended for trouble shooting,
it records every event so if you do have a problem it can point to the exact source of the problem.
If your computer is working ok,like yours obviously is then there is no need to be concerned about the event viewer.
