KC- What this event is saying is that an application--probably a system application--is trying to create an event so that it can receive a notification when a GPO changes. However, for some reason, that application is unable to create the event for security reasons. It would probably be useful to determine which process is trying to register that event. The (52e8.5f2c) value indicates the process and thread ids for that call. If you can use Task Manager to check the process id, that might help narrow down the problem. I know its not much help, but maybe a starting point.

It will create the winlogon.log in the C:\winntt\security\logs directory. Read through the log and you should see where the error is happening. Search Technet for the keywords of "winlogon.log" and you should find the KB article with the registry keylocation.
