Re: Event Error 5000

Hi Adam,

Sorry for the delay due to the weekend.

Based on the information you provided, this error may be cause by many
reasons. I have listed some of them for your reference:

* Reason 1: Large .pst or .ost file
===============

Are you using a large .pst or .ost file? If your .pst or .ost file is
larger than 2GB, you may experience a performance issue in Outlook 2007.

In order to accommodate new features, Outlook 2007 introduced a new data
structure for .pst and .ost files. In this new data structure, the
frequency of writing data to the hard disk increases as the number of items
in the .pst or .ost files increases.

To resolve this problem, use one of the following methods:

# Method 1: Reduce the size of the Exchange mailbox
# Method 2: Use an online mode profile instead of a cached mode profile
# Method 3: Split your large .pst file into several smaller .pst files
# Method 4: Use a filter to restrict the items that you synchronized from
Exchange into your .ost file

For more information, please refer to the following KB article:

items in a large .pst file or in a large .ost file in Outlook 2007

* Reason 2: Windows Desktop Search 3.0
===============

Have you installed any desktop search engine such as Windows Desktop Search
3.0? If this is the case, please temporarily uninstall it and then test the
issue.

If this does not match your situation, then please also try some
suggestions below to narrow it down:

* Suggestion 1: Temporarily turn off/remove antivirus program
================

Many times such issue can be caused by the antivirus program currently
running on the machine. Please temporarily turn off or remove antivirus
application and see if this scenario is gone.

* Suggestion 2: Temporarily remove Adobe Reader
================

Sometimes Adobe Reader can also cause this issue. If you have this program
installed on your computer, please temporarily remove it and see if this
issue can be resolved.

* Suggestion 3: Test in Outlook Safe Mode
================

Outlook Safe Mode can narrow down issues which are caused by any
extensions, corrupted resources, files, registries, or templates.

1. Click Start | Run.
2. In the Open box, type: "Outlook /safe" (without the quotation marks)
Notes: There is a space character between Outlook and the forward slash (/).
3. Click OK.

If all fail, then please help us collect more information so that we can do
