From: Larry Struckmeyer [SBS-MVP] on
My suggestion is that you try www.eventid.net for the cause and repair for
some of your errors. There are two many, but probably related, for me to do
it.

Note that you do not have to have an account to use the site, although I
encourage you to have one. The restriction is that you can't jump directly
to the links they show.
