Generic Host Process Win32 Services

Aug 14, 2006

For the past several days I've started to get this error message while on line. Just after the error I can no longer send or receive anything email or browser.I can't even go off line. Restarting Windows is the only way to correct this situation. The problem occurs at random times but usually 30 minutes to an hour after I go on line.Attached is a snapshot of the actual error.

Generic Host Processes For 32 Services Error

Dec 6, 2005

I've got a machine (with an AMD 1+ Gb CPU, 512Mb RAM etc running Win XP Pro & Linspire 5.0 Linux OS) with two separate and independently booted hard drives. Drive 1 (normally 'C') is 40Gb., Drive 2(designated 'F' by Windows) is 80Gb.I originally had Win XP running on a single HDD (C). A second HDD was installed (F - automatically designated by XP). Windows XP was reinstalled on this new (80Gb)HDD and all the data from the original HDD was transferred to the new one, everything worked fine, with XP now booting on the new (F) drive.

Generic Host Service For Win32 Fails At Startup

Jul 13, 2008

So here's the deal: I try booting into windows one day, and I can't even get as far as the boot screen. Safe mode only results in a hard reboot, so I decided to run a repair install of windows XP. After doing this, several things started going wrong:
- At startup I receive a message "generic host service for win32 needs to close"
- Explorer's theme reverts to windows classic after a few minutes
- several key services are not running at startup, i.e windows audio, DCHP client
- at one point my audio randomly cut out and my screen began to fade to white, but the computer's been fine since, I just want some input before I decide to try running another repair install to see if there's any other way to remedy this situation.

Generic Host Process

Aug 15, 2006

i have a "generic host process for win32 services" error after i've connected to internet with adsl usb modem.and my connection is lost till i shutdown and restart.i tried lots of things, do a google search but couldn't solve.when i restart the computer and do not dial for internet, no error occurs.
but when i dial and start to surf or download something it gives this error at different times.
sometimes the error occurs 10 minutes later sometimes 1 hour later.when i dal to the internet my network connection icon(near the time in the lower right corner) says limited connection or there's no connection.
i think that's beacuse it cannot receive ip from my ISP.how can i solve this limited connection problem?i removed the drivers installed again, removed the drivers and installed the old ones.do a virus scan with latest updatesdo a system restore but nothig changes.

Generic Host Process - Download Speed Would Randomly Slow Down

Apr 30, 2008

I've noticed recently there is ongoing, intermittant internet activity when I'm on-line using dialup. This is a fairly new condition. The main reason it came to my attention was I've been downloading win updates from the catalog site to keep on my external drive for potential future use, and the download speed would randomly slow down.

I went into my Zone Alarm (free version 7.0.470.000) and looked at the programs currently granted permission to access the internet trusted zone. Among them was "Generic Host Process for win32 services". I changed the stauts to "Ask" and since then the intermittant activity has stopped, but I get the ZA popup asking for access by that svchost.exe executable
