In regards to the system event message: The ASPI32 service failed to start due to
the following error: The system cannot find the file specified.
I eliminated this message from being posted to the system event message by deleting
the registry entry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Service\ASPI32
As best as I could determine the ASPI32 service was not needed in my Win2000 and
this probaby was a artifact of some uninstall that didn't clean up that entry. Obviously,
since the service didn't start and I have no wrong system behavior, I don't need
that entry. Also, ASPI32 didn't show up as a service in the Control Panel/Administrative
Tools/Services and that's why you have to delete it from the registry to get rid
of this error. The other solution is to simply ignore the bogus error.
