Problem with Rundll32 in Win 98 SE
I tried posting this in another section of Win 98 but no help.
Please help me if you have any suggestions My wife has a P2, running Win 98 SE, with 458MB of RAM. She uses a Lexmark 6250 series All in One Printer/Copier/Scanner for emailing photos of the grandkids. Everything has been working fine until recently, when the scanner portion of the All In One stopped working. The copier and printer portion work fine, The help desk of the Lexmark ssupport folks helped me isolate to the printer of Win 98 operating system. During the fault isolation process I got an error message having to do with Rundll 32. The message says something like ("Rundll 32 has created an error)The Lexmark folks felt this could be the cause of the problem. I hooked up the printer to my system ( a P4, Win xp, 512 MB of RAM) loaded the printer software and all 3 functions of the All In One work as advertised. QUESTIONS 1. What exactly does Rundll 32 do? 2. Any suggestion on fixing the problem? TIA Loring H. |

Problem with Rundll32 in Win 98 SE
Ron,
Thanks for the reply. I went in to the room where my wifes computerr is and turned on the printer and Lo and Behold it worked as advertised. I ahd connected it to my computer to see if it would work and it did. Then when I hooked it back up to my wife's computer it started working. Must have been a connector probllem. thanks anway Loring H On Wed, 23 Aug 2006 23:00:36 -0500, "Ron Badour" wrote: Please post the exact error message. |
