Quite often when I boot up my comp, I get an error message saying there has been an error with a program called spool32. It doesnt appear to do much, but it stops the comp from restarting, shutting down or connecting to the internet. I dont even know what this spool32 thing is, and what its for. It happened with my old motherboard and hard disc and stuff.

running an athlon 750
256mb rab
30gig hdd
gforce2 64mb
windows 98

if anyone has any help, pleas shove it my way!!!!

cheers in advance

Its a built in windows printing utility. It makes a copy of the page that you print out...

Try to search for the file on your HD and replace it with the one on your windows instatalation CD...
