The annoying W2k error #'s ... help!

NTDEV

Hello,

Sometimes W2K/NT display an error #. I was told this is a legacy feature from VMS as David (forgot last name) who was the chief architect of NT came from DEC where he was the chief architect of VAX VMS. In any case, these numbers are very annoying. When I try to load a legacy driver I get 1058. How can I determine what this is??

Thanks and regards, Vasili

net helpmsg 1058

The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.

WINERROR.H is a source of these numbers.
