Msgsvr32 Errors

Many people are experiencing problems which they can trace back to Msgsrv32. But Msgsrv32 is not the cause. Some info on Msgsrv32:

Msgsrv32.exe is a program (Windows 32-bit message server) that performs several background functions necessary for Windows operation.

These functions include:

·       Load installable Windows drivers at startup and unload them at shutdown

·       Run the shell program (usually Explorer.exe) and re-run the shell if it fails to respond

·       Mediate Plug and Play messages among various parts of the operating system

·       Coordinate automatic responses to Setup programs. This includes checking whether a Setup program has improperly overwritten Windows files, and optionally restoring the Windows versions of those files

·       Display the initial logon dialog box if networking is enabled

·       Play the system startup and shutdown sounds

Usually these messages appear on shutdown. Here are some more common errors and their causes:

·       MSGSRV32.DLL caused a General Protection Fault in Module CM8330SB.DRV

You need to visit the C-Media site and upgrade your drivers
