A friend of mines computer keeps haveing system errors, and reboots using WIndows XP professinal

When I checked his Event Log- the times of the reboots coresspond to event code 1003 and category (102).

When I checked microsofts knowledge databse I found this:

Event ID: 1003

Detail Text: The object length of an object returned by Extensible Counter DLL (DLL name) for the (service name) service was not correct. The sum of the object lengths returned did not match the size of the buffer returned. Performance data returned by counter DLL will not be returned in Perf Data Block. Count of objects returned is data DWORD 0.

Interpretation: After the collect function returns, perflib validates the TotalByteLength members of each PERF_OBJECT_TYPE structure returned by the performance extension. This error event means there is problem with one or more TotalByteLength values in the PERF_OBJECT_TYPE structures.

Expertise: Developer of named extensible counter DLL

Anyone know how to fix this problem.

TIA

P.S. THe errors occured while using internet explorer and/ or winmx

    • MY sandisk ultra usb 3.0 256gb it only shows like 3.1gb

      By patrickft456 · Posted

      Hey Nick! 👋 No worries at all — you're not alone in this, and it's great you're asking for help. Let me walk you through a simple, step-by-step fix using the tool mentioned on that AOMEI Partition Assistant guide — it really does the trick for many people with this exact issue! ✅ Here’s how to restore your USB back to full 256GB on Windows 11: Download & Install AOMEI Partition Assistant Go to the link you shared: AOMEI Partition Assistant and click the Download Freeware button. Insert your USB stick (Sandisk Ultra 256GB) Make sure it's properly connected. Wait for the system to detect it. Launch AOMEI Partition Assistant Once open, you'll see all your connected drives listed. Locate your USB Drive Look for the one that says something like Disk X – Removable and shows only 3.1GB or so. Right-click on your USB Drive’s Partition Then select Delete Partition → confirm the deletion. Now, right-click on the unallocated space (it should now show full unallocated capacity) Choose Create Partition → format it as FAT32 or exFAT (recommended for larger drives) → click OK. Click “Apply” in the top left corner Then hit Proceed to execute the pending operations. Wait a bit... and boom! 🎉 Your USB should now be restored to its full 256GB capacity!

      When Facebook bought Beat Saber, they promised exactly this would never happen. Facebook can’t not lie.

    • Steam overlay's FPS counter gets major upgrade to show CPU and VRAM usage, temps, and more

      Depends on what you mean by "this data". Nvidia can show you quite a few of those as well in their performance overlay, and I guess they might've assumed that if anyone wants to see more, they'll just use Afterburner as the de facto standard. As for real framerate vs framegen framerate, I don't think they exactly want you to know, given that their marketing has been strongly focused on hiding the real framerate and pretending the generated one is all that matters...

      Yeah, but that never works out well. You can just give your power user more options and they'll be happy. Your new generation can just go with whatever you think is the best default.
