I did an internet search that noted some posts that this 'Rundll32.exe' sudden shutdown was associated with a Nero driver. It advised that you rename a file. This was the case on my system and I did that. But this persisted. Then I even uninstalled Nero completely. This did not stop it. I spent $30 on Registry Booster 2 that proports to address this issue. It did improve my systems speeed and boot time, but still failing until I realized that this was happening because it was being saved to the directory that was used when the problem started "VueDownload2007". I managed to quickly switch the SAVE directory to another and the problem stopped. Thus it appears that the last Vue item I saved to that directory initiated the issue and if I try to SAVE to this directory it will force the Rundll32exe to shutdown, preventing any downloading or copying. This pretty much took up last evening and I was at work today, so I will need to work on this some more. I just knew I did not want to move beyone XP which runs flawlessly on my dual P4 Dell, but got a new HP Quad processor box and it came with Vista. No option to switch out for XP, which I would have done had that option existed.
My last order that you reset the Adrianne character in has a Vue object which would have been the file that I downloaded when this problem with Rundll32exe started. I do not think it was the file per se. I downloaded it on my other computer and it seemed fine, so I am a bit baffled. I did not know if this might be some type of security related situation.
Thanks,
