Hi Brian,

The error message is not coming from Vista. "Device Detector 3" is often
associated with software from Olympus - do you have any Olympus stuff
installed?

The program is probably C:\Program Files\Olympus\DeviceDetector\DevDtct2.exe

You may have a link to this program in your Startup group. Go to Start Menu,
All Programs, Startup, and look for an icon pointing to this EXE. Move the
icon out of the Startup group, to stop it from being automatically started
when you log in.

As to what the error itself signifies, and whether it is important or not
.... you'd need to check with Olympus. They may have a user forum on the web
where you can ask questions (I dunno).

Hope this helps a bit,
