It seems that I'd get rid of this error log if I uninstall and reinstall the Integration Services from the windows 8.1 that I am running on Hyper-V 2008 R2.
I was wondering though, whether there is a procedure to do it other way around; I mean instead of removing the version 3.3 that came bundled with 8.1 image and downgrading to 3.0 ; upgrade the Hyper-V 2008 R2 to accept 3.3 integration service.
