• DV7 error when viewing of images: "COM Surrogate has stopped working".

  Hi, I got a new replacement laptop (Pavilion dv7-7008tx with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit) HP last Friday, June 8, and I find that when I browse through multiple images in the Windows Photo Viewer I invariably get the error 'COM Surrogate has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem... "I close the window and reopen and it is fine. This does not happen with specific images.

  Problem solved. I went on HP Live Chat support and the technician gave me the download links to updates to the graphics driver, which solved the problem.

• Com Surrogate "has stopped working" what installation police FTT on C drive under Vista 32 bit?

  Last night, I acquired and scanned [for security issues] 3 font TTF files to install in the C:\Windows\Fonts folder as usual.

  The first two fonts went fine, BUT the third "Berlin Email schéma" police threw up an error Com Surrogate "has stopped working".

  As I said, I scanned the font files before any attempt to copy/install the...

  I also ran a complete check & repair on drive C, last night, with no reported errors / bad sectors.

  Now, I am running a full analysis of McAfee on my computer - which I doubt will lift up to the top of questions, but I try to be thorough.

  Despite Com Surrogate, I have no problem display of media files, or opening files / media such as MP3s and JPEG playback.

  Any suggestions? I don't want to run with a fixable problem unless I have to... and I would rather have back the possibility to install fonts for my graphics work [I have about 10 fonts plus the basic package provided by Microsoft, so far, so I'm not clog the system!]

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Thanks for the response - in fact, I had tried the 2nd suggestion, after reading the other sons of COM Surrogate. It did not work.

  However, in the pack of fonts that I downloaded, I noticed that it contained files of the Foundation as well as TTF versions... Curiosity got to me and police OTF files installed correctly [and work properly in Word and Photoshop] without these errors.

  I can only imagine files TTF for 'Berlin Email' to Peter Wiegel variations of police [medium, outline etc.] that are widely available on the net must be correctly written. Although his records from OTF to the same fonts are very good [that are police records I have of other 3rd-party designer-programmers, installed on the same day].

  As each disk check, the repair process, scanning and virus check is 100% clean, and all media connectedness files I use work perfectly, I'm 99.9% sure that it was a font error codes file and not any form of operating system error.

  So my DEP settings are left on during all programs without exception, and I don't see any more errors.

• COM Surrogate has stopped working suddenly?

  I had my PC Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit since March, 2012.

  Tonight, October 17, 2014, I started getting an error "COM Surrogate has stopped working" pop up, all the time, for no apparent reason.

  I can not play with Windows Media Player AVI files without this message and ALSO a message that WMP has ALSO stopped working.

  I can't play AVI files in right click on the video and using 'Play with WMP Basic' without also getting this message as soon as I do a right click.

  I don't know if it's related, but since YESTERDAY I can't load YAHOO! in Internet Explorer. The page will simply not load, so I can't check my email official, formal and work-related.

  Chrome works very well, so I CAN access YAHOO! my general, leisure, pleasure and e-mails related to the game.

  I always allow upgrades of Windows, so I don't understand why it started to happen out of the blue.

  I have a current Antivirus with BitDefender Total Security and perform regular maintenance.

  Any suggestions on a fix for this?

  Thank you very much

  (Moved to programs)

  The first error points to the ffdshow.ax:

  Fault Module name: ffdshow.AX
  Fault Module version: 1.3.0.0
  Module Timestamp error: 53aedcb1

  The second error points to the avformat-lav - 55.dll:

  Fault Module name: avformat-lav - 55.dll
  Fault Module version: 55.43.100.0
  Module Timestamp error: 00029000

  The ffdshow.ax and avformat-lav - 55.dll can be components of a pack of codecs such as the K-Lite Codec Pack.

  Codec packs are / are installed?

  You can uninstall the codec packs and see if the error resolves?

  Hello

  
  Com Surrogate has stopped working:
  
  Were there any changes (hardware or software) to the computer before the show?
  
  Start the computer in safe mode and see if the problem persists. If the issue is not perist in safe mode, and then put the computer to boot and see if the problem still occurs.
   

  Step 1: Safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not work in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode
  
  Step 2: to help troubleshoot error messages and other issues, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
  
  Note: follow step 7 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.

• "COM Surrogate has stopped working" - error when browsing photos on the new version of Windows 7

  Just built a new pc and installed Windows 7, everything works fine but whenever I browse photos using the photo viewer, it freezes and opens with "COM Surrogate has stopped working" (after 10-20 photos - happens every time).

  I read online about possible errors - I do not have Nero or DivX installed so cannot include those. I also can not disable Protection for the execution of the data for dllhost.exe is 64-bit Windows, so it will not allow him.

  Any help would be much appreciated: it's very frustrating!

  If you have a laptop with optimus or ati changegraphic, you must add the dllhost.exe to the graphics card performance. After that it should be to fix the problem.

  I have COM surrogate has stopped working in my photo gallery

  Hi kenneth,.

  Do you know when this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/76905-system-restore-how.html.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.

  If this does not work or you do not have a restore point will come back enough, check out the following article on this error and a few solutions: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/fix-for-com-surrogate-has-stopped-working-error-in-vista/.

  If that doesn't work, first make sure that Vista is up-to-date on all service packs and updates and then try the new Windows Live Photo Gallery Windows Essentials: http://explore.live.com/windows-live-photo-gallery?os=other who can not only solve the problem, but can improve your experience with her because she is improved and strengthened.

  I hope this helps.
