Hi, In Windows Server 2003(Service pack 2), while editing properties of "My Computer" in component services, the application is crashing. The following description is seen in Event Viewer. "The description for Event ID ( 1000 ) in Source ( Microsoft Management Console ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: mmc.exe, 5.2.3790.3959, comuid.dll, 2001.12.4720.3959, 0002f9aa." Event_id : 1000, Event_source : Microsoft Management Console In component services, red color downward arrow symbol seen near to "My Computer". Thanks in advance Regards, Chandra Mohan

Enter into Safe Mode with networking and see the result. Meanwhile, clean boot your machine and check if the issue persists.
