Hi there,
I like to take a look in my "Event Viewer" in the "Administrative tools". Every time, there is an error of "NetBT". This error happens everytime i on my PC, i found this from the time and date in the "Event Viewer"
I can't see the effects in the windows. I can only see the error in "Administrative tools". But i afraid it will cause anything. Each time there is two of this error.
When i double click it, it says "Initialization failed because the driver device could not be created."

What is happening, what is wrong...???
You pro's out there please help me...
I afraid i'll end up formatting or reinstalling windows....

Thanks in advance for all your help....

If you love something set it free, if it doesn't come back, hunt it down and kill it !!!

<A HREF="http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/proddocs/net_start.asp" target="_new">Microsoft page to list of services and descriptions including netbt (aka tcp/ip netbios helper)</A>

Starts the NetBIOS helper over TCP service, which enables NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) services.

NetBT services provide NetBIOS data grams, NetBIOS sessions, and NetBIOS name management (such as name registration and resolution) for NetBIOS applications that are using the TCP/IP protocol.

This command is available only if the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol is installed as a component in the properties of a network adapter in Network Connections


My guess is the service is either disabled, or you don't need it or both.
