HIDSERV error after Installing ATI Video Card & Latest MS Updates Thursday, January 4, 2007 at 10:03 am Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Howard Rifkind (57 messages posted) After rebuilding my W2K box and installing a new ATI Video card (the instalation loaded down a whole lot of other stuff which I'll never use) I'm getting a message box indicating that HIDSEV had an error and is closing. I have installed all the drivers for this card which came on a CD with the card. I'm using an MS wireless mouse (USB) which works fine and after doing a Google for HIDSERV it seems to be an error if you have a keyboard with some sort of sound either in the keyboard or some device attached to the keyboard. I have disabled HIDSERV through MSCONFIG so I don't get this message. Would some please be good enough to shead some light on this issue. I hate disabling services not knowing exactly what is going to happen. Is there any fix for this sort of thing? Thanks. Regards There are presently no replies to this message.
