Windows 10: Kernel-WHEA journal logs events on every startup. Is something wrong with the PC?

Hello!
There are two Kernel-WHEA journals: Error and Operational. Error journal is empty, but Operational journal is getting big: 4 records on every startup.

It consists of the following events:

1 Event id = 5 1 record. Looking at the description it seems that there's nothing wrong:

WHEA successfully initialized. 4 error sources are active. Error record format version is 10


2 Event id = 42 3 records. No meaningful description. Content example:

-<Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event">

I wasn't able to found what id = 42 really means.

Can somebody say what does this id mean and should I be worried?


Thank you.

Kernel-Power event id 41. BugcheckCode 0

Hello,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

In-order to get more clarity on this issue and to assist you with appropriate troubleshooting steps, reply with answers to the below questions:

1. Are you aware of any changes made on your PC, prior to this issue?
   
2. Is this issue specific while playing a particular game?
   
3. Which edition of Windows are you currently using?
   

A Kernel Power Event 41 can occur in the following scenarios.

Scenario 1: The computer restarts, and there is a Stop error BugcheckCode in the event data.

Scenario 2: The computer is shut down by pressing and holding the power button.

Scenario 3: The system randomly restarts and no Stop error BugcheckCode is listed, or the computer is completely unresponsive (hard hang).

I suggest you refer the article on Kernel
Power Event ID 41 and follow the steps for the scenario that is causing this error on your PC.

Additionally, you can refer the article on Windows
Kernel event ID 41 error "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first" in Windows
and check if that helps.

Regards,

Sandeep Kumar M
