any one have any ideas whats wrong with it. and how to fix it.

thank you

msgsrv32 is the task that handles the distribution of messages to various apps. if it dies, the computer stops responding, and you have to reboot.

As for why it's happening... I'd guess you have a driver problem. I don't know which one, but try updating your modem driver first.

reformatting is unecessary and evil!!!

just deltree your Windows directory and reinstall.

or, to be supa 1337, use 'move' to rename your Windows directory, like so :

move windows oldwin
cd \oldwin
del win.com
d:
setup

{ get windows reinstalled, drivers working, etc. }

From a Windows command prompt :
xcopy /h /e /c /k c:\oldwin\*.* c:\windows\

{ press 'n' every time you're prompted to overwrite. You'll probably just want to hold down the N key for ten minutes or so. }

that will restore your desktop, start menu, fonts, and any .DLLs not included with the standard Windows install, without overwriting any drivers or Windows DLLs.

Some apps will have to be reinstalled, some won't, but you'll have a clean install of Windows without too much hassle

If at first you don't succeed, get a bigger hammer.
