Event ID 1008 indicates a computer freeze warning.
I’m experiencing frequent PC freezes while playing games. After a recent BIOS update and installing factory Secure Boot keys, the problem persists but now triggers different alerts in Event Viewer. When the game freezes unexpectedly, I’m unable to restart automatically and must manually reboot via the case button. The Event logs display these messages: "Event 1008, Perflib: The Open procedure for service 'MSDTC' in DLL 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\msdtcuiu.DLL' failed with error code The system cannot find the file specified.. Performance data for this service will not be available." "Event 1008, Perflib: The Open procedure for service 'WmiApRpl' in DLL 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\wmiaprpl.dll' failed with error code The device is not ready.. Performance data for this service will not be available." Given these details, I’m wondering if anyone has encountered similar issues with this setup.
Three methods to try A: Start with an SFC scan. First, launch Terminal with admin rights and type sfc/scannow. Once finished, run DISM /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth. Next, close the terminal and restart the system. For B, re-register the DLL file by opening Terminal as admin, navigating to CD %SYSTEMROOT%\System32 and entering loadctr /r. Then register the file using loadctr /e with the appropriate path, such as msdtcuiu.DLL. Finally, refresh the file via WINMGMT.EXE /RESYNCPERF and end by closing the terminal and restarting again. Option C involves using third-party tools for the process.
