Event Viewer: HID Input Service error.


Recommended Posts

Four days ago I began using a Logitech cordless keyboard and cordless laser mouse, packaged as 'Cordless Desktop LX310 Laser'.

Since then each time I boot the system (XP Pro SP2) I find this error message in Event Viewer:

Event Type: Error

Event Source: Service Control Manager

Event Category: None

Event ID: 7023

Date: 22/12/2007

Time: 1:25:00 PM

User: N/A

Computer: WDGC

Description:

The HID Input Service service terminated with the following error:

The system cannot find the file specified.

What is the cause and meaning of this error and how can I rectify it?

Hello WDGC,

You will need your Windows XP CD handy to rectify this problem. Navigate to "D:\I386\Driver.cab" on the CD and extract the following files to your "%systemroot%\system32" folder.

  • hidserv.dll
  • mouclass.sys
  • mouhid.sys

Best of luck. (Y)

Hello again WDGC,

All 3 files should be in the Driver.cab file. I just checked two XP CDs to verify it. Can you give me your e-mail address in a PM? I can send you what you need in a RAR file.

    • It's just exactly what it looks like. The facial polygon count is low and rigid, and the background appears heavily blurred. You can clearly see jagged edges around the car window as it exits the tunnel. The character animations feel like they're from 2010. The Xbox Series S has performance similar to an RX 570 or GTX 1660, which is disappointing and contributes to holding back game development. The Switch GPU is roughly on par with a 2050 or 3050, which is even worse. Developers have often discussed the challenges and limitations of developing for outdated/low end hardware, noting how it can hold back progress. This isn't a new issue. I am sure we will hear about the "Challenges" they had to overcome here and sacrifices that had to be made for compatibility with the outdated/low end hardware.
    • Whether on Edge or Firefox, I don't get this prompt to accept cookies, because they're already whitelisted by the Cookie AutoDelete extension, both on Edge and Firefox. And, as I've already said, using Edge (yesterday), Neowin isn't whitelisted (I never use Edge), and I didn't get that pop-up. And this morning, after checking, still no pop-up, and everything is activated, the proof (screenshot), I have no ads on the right side. I must add that I block the following trackers Doubleclick, and Scorecardresearch, as well as a few other undesirable ones, via the Host file. Back to square one! After all, it's a simple click to continue, so I'll do with it. 🤷🏽‍♂️ Thank You
    • F'ing FIIINALLY! Much easier to ask people what their hardware is 🙏 and could also very well just say DDR4 or DDR5 without asking to bloat it too much. I'm also curious to see what it will say in More device info...
    • Sure, that must be why it was revealed at the Sony showcase... the game was announced 5 years ago and the visuals are far from poor, what the hell are you smoking, plus the Switch 2 is pretty much on par with an Xbox Series S. It would be absolutely insane for a dev to build a game "with the Switch 2 in mind" when it's coming to all platforms where the majority of sales will happen.
