In my Windows XP system event log, I see an error at every boot up saying:

"The USB Flatbed Scanner service failed to start due to the following error: The
service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no
enabled devices associated with it."

Source: Service Control Manage
Event ID: 7000

I do not have a USB Flatbed Scanner. There is no "USB Flatbed Scanner" service
listed in the Services list. Searching with Google has not revealed anything
useful.

Could this startup error have any adverse effect (like making Windows slower to
boot) and if so, is there any way I stop this.

Maybe update the chipset installation utility for youre MB chipset,get from
mfg (intel/amd/etc),then,open device mgr,scroll to system devices,expand
the USB tree,R.click the controller(s) one at a time,select update
drivers....

Thanks for the suggestions.

I have installed latest chipset drivers for my MB. I have also tried individually
updating the USB controllers as you suggested, but it says I already have the most
recent drivers.

A BIOS update was available, but only to resolve an issue with resuming from
suspend mode. As I don't have that problem I am wary of updating the BIOS, as the
last time I tried to update the BIOS of a PC it turned into an unbootable brick.

Do you happen to have a printer? Is it an "All in One" model?

Perhaps I should have added it is a network device, not USB.

Then it is possible that the PhotoSmart "drivers" is the cause of the
scanner problem. Have you checked for an updated drivers.
