OS: Vista Home Premium 64 bit. Recently jumped from an AMD 754 to Intel 775 Quad core. Same OS, just reinstalled and formatted HD. No issues under 754 but having this problem along with others now.

| Vista Home Premium 64 bit | Re: Print Spooler Service has stopped Irondog, It is frustrating but I actually like the 64 bit, even with the other problems. I've found a lot of other small problems (can't set up parental controls, some UAC setting issues, etc) and think I might try to reinstall. None of the Nvidia control panel software works and plus a lot of the hotfixes in my history are "failures". Like I said before, everything worked 100% perfect 2 weeks ago. I'm going to keep searching because I'd rather not reinstall Vista again. |

| | Re: Print Spooler Service has stopped I have been looking all over the internet for possible solutions and have come up with "0" for the first time in my life i am completely stumped. The one thing that I have not tried is going back to Vista home version. That realy was the most stable my computer has been for a long time. But what a hater, An Irondog with his tail between his legs. I will not give up though. Good luck. If you everwant to contact directly I @ irondoging@xxxxxx or irondog433@xxxxxx Good luck.

| Vista Home Premium 64 bit | Re: Print Spooler Service has stopped I'm stumped for the first time as well. I'm seriously considering a fresh install. For some reason my PC thinks it went through some major hardware changes and informed me I need to activate Vista again. Since I have to do that I'm thinking about trying it again. I also noted there are 40 updates that failed and won't install. Only thing I did was update my MOBO bios in a vain attempt of correcting this and other issues. |
