I am getting an error message in Event Viewer regarding the Beep Service:
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7000
Date: 4/20/2008
Time: 10:26:01 PM
User: N/A
Computer: MELE
Description:
The Beep service failed to start due to the following error:
The maximum number of secrets that may be stored in a single system has been exceeded.
In Device Manager I have a yellow exclamation point next to Beep and expanding that it says "device not present, or not working properly, or all drivers are not installed (error 24)".
I clicked on the Troubleshoot button and got a blank page in XP Pro Help.
Current status is "Started" and startup type is "system". The driver is installed. How do I fix this? What does the error mean regarding "secrets"? What "secrets"?
