• At boot Dell Studio 540 running Vista, I get a warning that "Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working.

  After each start up my Dell Studio 540 with Vista, I get a warning that "Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working.  Although this 'fault' seems to have no obvious effect on the following operations, it is very annoying to have to clear the window. I applied the suggested solutions elsewhere, but without success either.  Can someone please help me - in simplistic terms that I am a silver surfer?  Thank you very much.

  Thanks a lot for the guide. Finally, I've identified the problem via the boot as in the NVIDIA driver.  I've now updated that and everything seems to work fine - touch wood!

• Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working

  Is a general Vista problem and also a general problem of Thinkpad, but it has what I feel to be a frequency among the W500s so I thought to post it here.

  In recent weeks, I got this error (Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working) several times. A lot of googleing will tell you that it can be caused by a number of things, for example other video programs, Nero burning software, video codecs and burning software and the ATI catalyst control center.

  For me, uninstalling the ATI catalyst control center and the rest of the correction of the error of video card drivers. Resettlement has reduced. Uninstall them and then only by reinstalling the driver first, then check catalytic Center later after another reboot all reinstalled successfully and also got rid of the error.

  However, two days ago I updated my lenovo Power Manager and after the next restart, I started getting this error again. I tried the trick with video drivers, but this time I was not so lucky. Uninstall them completely is not even get rid of the error. I think only it is the new power manager I uninstalled everything and somehow got rid of the error.

  I'm about to reinstall the power manager and I hope he's not bring error.

  Another thing, I found that can cause this error:

  I'd just do a fresh install of vista and lenovo apps + Manager supply and everything worked. Since I never use the optical drive, I went to the Device Manager and disabled, which gave me the error Rundll32.exe about 60 seconds later, and this caused again Manager power to stop working, even after that it recharges.

  I finally understand that disabling my optical drive Springs somehow this error on me which then also stops Power Manager. The optical drive from the reactivation got rid of the error immediately.

• Windows host process Rundll32 has stopped working ONLY at startup on the desktop.

  When I start my Dell Inspiron 531 after that sign in the screen will Dim twice for a few seconds then the Windows host process Rundll32 has stopped working window appears. If you close another small window exactly the same error message mentioned above tells you that Windows will look for a solution but NEVER done. I use AOL version 9.0, I can sign and the big surf for dial-up access. I tried to download free Kaspersky on their site and an error message said it was incomplete or corrupted. I have Windows Security Essentials, Stopzilla, CCleaner, Glary Utilities, you run sfc/scannow, it cleaned up a few files and he tells me that he has no integrity problem after 4 scans. The big short PC but what the _ is causing this Rundll32 error and why is there NO information specific on how to solve this problem? Also Internet Explorer cascades tiles and diverts the PC sometimes force a quick stop, it's really weird to see, very rare but happens. Systerac Fix of Windows crashes after starting an analysis on current user files, really strange, as if something is trying to stop him on purpose. I wish that Microsoft would really worry about the Rundll32 error of work ceased and tell us customers how to fix this shit it is very boring I'll tell you. I want that my host process Rundll32 to work as it did for the past 2 years with no error message at startup. He never gives me these messages while I use the Internet. There are many pages of misinformation out there, can some Microsoft Engineer please give me that a definitive answer in particular to the Windows host process Rundll32 has ceased to function the error at startup ONLY and tell me how to fix Rundll32 file or the process, it would be greatly appreciated? Thank you. Woman

  Rundll32.exe is a system file which loads the required files library (.dll) for a routine on request. From what you describe, it seems that the library file, you are trying to load to support the display of images is corrupted or damaged. Open a command prompt by typing CMD in the line of departure and search, then right click on the menu entry that appears and choose "Run as Administrator". Click on continue in the UAC prompt. From the command line, run:

  sfc/scannow

  When done, exit the command prompt and restart the system normally. Then try to use all the measures you were doing that causes the error to appear. If it happens again, please post back with the exact text of the error (you can use the event viewer if it flashes too fast).
