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

rekr

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

    • Ew... Not going to download that crap, even if it's free!
    • They can say whatever they want about the delay, it was paid for. No way it just happens to release exactly 1 year later, gtfo.
    • There's a similar 2025 model that's even cheaper (£474)
    • Black Myth: Wukong hits Xbox this August, exactly a year after PlayStation launch by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Developer Game Science delivered one of the biggest action games of all time last year, with Black Myth: Wukong going on to sell tens of millions in its launch month and winning a multitude of awards. However, the title skipped out on a platform it was originally announced to launch in: Xbox. Following a long string of reasons and delays, it seems the port is finally coming to the platform. Today, Game Science announced that the Xbox Series X|S version of Black Myth: Wukong now has a release date, with it landing on August 20, 2025. Pre-orders for the title will become available starting June 18. Interestingly, this Xbox release date is set exactly one year after the original release on PlayStation 5 and PC. Game Science originally stated that the delay was due to technical issues with Xbox consoles. However, Microsoft refuted that claim quickly and alluded that the delay was due to some sort of console exclusivity deal between Game Science and Sony. In today's announcement, Game Science once again says that the delay was due to its work on porting the game to Xbox and meeting its quality standards. "Bringing Black Myth: Wukong to Xbox Series X|S—and ensuring the experience met our internal quality standards—was no easy feat," said the studio today regarding the long delay on Xbox platforms. "Fortunately, we were able to complete this challenging task smoothly within the first year of the game's official release." "If you're an Xbox player who hasn't yet experienced the game on another platform, we're confident it will stand among the finest ARPGs available on Xbox," added Game Science. For those looking to jump into the game a little cheaper than usual, Game Science will be hosting Black Myth: Wukong's first-ever sale on June 18. The 20% off discount will be available across PC, PlayStation, and even the Microsoft Store for the Xbox Series X|S pre-order.
