HELP! C:\WINDOWS\system32\spoolsv.exe error message

September 6, 2008

Hoping someone out there can help me. My system started hanging up, taking

forever to open anything, we started getting error messages for everything

and I do not know of anything recently added to cause this issue other than

updating our Intel Bios for overheating issues. Very simple home users love

E-Bay and working on my excel projects. I received this Debug Error! When

ever we hit print (on or off line) we get this message and the spooling goes

to 99% but never prints?

Program: C:\WINDOWS\system32\spoolsv.exe

Module: C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\W32X86\3\lxdddatr.dll

File:

Run-Time Check Failure #3 - The variable siNumberOfTopics' is being used

without being defined. for the last few days. We have run system checks on

Norton 360 with no issues found, we went through the Windows Update with no

updates needed. We uninstalled and reinstalled the printer drives, updated

the drivers and went through the help with Lexmark to no avail.

Hi there.

Sorry, I don't have any suggestions to help solve your problem - I was just wondering if you ever managed to achieve a solution?

I'm having similar problems myself- seeing exactly the same "spoolsv.exe/siNumberOfTopics" error message whenever I try to print...

I've tried reinstalling the printer drivers but to no avail.

(I couldn't find an appropriate smiley icon to show how close to tears I am!)
