Event Viewer Errors/Warnings related to electrical problems?
Posted: 02 Nov 2023, 01:06
I've seen a lot of talk about our (presumed) electrical-related issues and many proposed solutions, but I haven't seen much discourse regarding our event viewer logs and I'm curious if electrical problems could cause us to get similar errors and warnings. Because I get all kinds of errors and warnings that I've tried to get rid of, but I can't find solutions for, and most of them happen on fresh installs of Windows out of the box, and on both of my PC's (both at my house). Note: some event viewer errors and warnings are perfectly normal, but nonetheless I'd like to start a topic about it just for the sake of it being documented somewhere. Maybe we will find similarities amongst us experiencing suspected electrical-related problems. Hopefully this post is allowed in here.
The events that I get that are most alarming to me are from the source StorPort and can be found by, in the left pane of event viewer, navigating to Applications and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> Windows -> StorPort
Inside Microsoft-Windows-Storage-Storport/Operational I get errors 549, 523, and 534 and warning 557's. These are all nvme "errors" for my boot drive. They say things like "An IO took more than 30000 ms to complete for Storport Device". BTW these events (557), if you go to the details tab, they have a string that says "WaitDuration_ms" and some list crazy times like 42843319ms which is ~12 hours! I get all the same errors and high times on both of my PCs which I find interesting. Additionally the behavior is the same. I get a couple of them every time I turn on either PC and then some periodically while using my PC.
Also, inside Microsoft-Windows-Storage-Storport/Health I get event warning 548's that just say "The miniport logged a health event." All of these events I get when I turn on my PC as well as seemingly randomly. But I get them every day and have been since the day I installed Windows on this PC last. Some of the events, if you go to the details tab and select XML View, list strings of Intel Hex, but I don't know how to get anything meaningful out of it. Apparently there are some programs for Linux that could translate it and possibly get something useful from it. I did download Intel's tool for testing nvme drives for issues and my drive tested fine with 98% life left and no errors, so I'm not sure the hex string would even yield anything of use. Only other thing I can think to add is that I also tested my drive with the program DiskGenius, which netted me inconsistent results that varied depending on whether I tested the whole drive or individual partitions. When I tested the partition of my drive that I used briefly for a Linux install, it reported a lot of "good" sectors as opposed to the rest of my drive having almost all "excellent" sectors. (This is strange because I only used that partition for one day.)
Additional events I get on both PCs:
"Event 10002, WLAN-AutoConfig:
WLAN Extensibility Module has stopped.
Module Path: C:\Windows\system32\IntelIHVRouter04.dll"
My other PC uses a different wifi card/motherboard so the event lists a different dll file, but it's the same event and I get it when I turn on my PC just like my main one. Also, they're both on different ISPs and I'm pretty sure I get it randomly as well.
And finally I also get a TON of DCOM errors and warnings, damn near constant actually. They always say I have issues with permissions but I have not been able to figure them out even with ChatGPT's help. (The ID's the events give me don't exist when I try to find them in Component Services.
More errors and warnings I get are found in:
LiveID
CloudRestoreLauncher
HelloForBusiness
Known Folders
SettingsSync
SMB Client
StateRepository
Store
TaskScheduler
User Device Registration
Windows Remote Management
WMI-Activity
All are located in Applications and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> Windows) exactly where StorPort was located, but I don't think they are related and I'm only including them here for documentation. And again some errors and warnings are perfectly normal so I wouldn't recommend obsessing over every thing you see.
I've tried figuring out what causes these events but have turned up empty handed on all of them so far. So at this point I'd just like to document what my event viewer looks like because playing online games for me is impossible and unenjoyable. You can see my other post if you're curious about my suspected electricity-related problems. (viewtopic.php?f=24&t=12345&p=96443#p96443)
