My Toughest SP:WaW Adversary: Spool32:

Every once in a while, during game play in SP:WaW, I get a pop-up saying that 'Spool32 has caused an illegal opperation' and the game shuts down. Needless to say, this can be quite frustrating when you lose a hard fought turn! :rolleyes: What the heck is Spool32, and why is it making problems for me? :cool: :eek: :D

I"m pretty sure it has to do with your printer.

Hi Eric,

Yes, it's your print spooler. If you type SPOOL32 into google, you will get a couple of immediate hits with instructions on how to fix some spool32 errors - you probably need to update a print driver.

HTH,
