Error message: Host process for windows services stopped

I recently had to install a new hard drive into my laptop. I am running windows vista and have installed all updated drivers. After installing itunes and uploading my backed up library, I went to play a song and I got the error "host process for windows services stopped working and was closed." Movies play fine. I have searched but have not found anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Q I just upgraded to a new mobo and CPU, the EVGA X58 SLi and i7 920, and this issue still persists! That means it is either the sound card or Steam. The drivers on the CD have no issues, only the newer ones do. So by deduction there is something wrong with the new drivers, but I need them to not BSOD in OpenAL!

A135-S4527 Host Process for Windows Services stopped...

I have started getting a Windows error: Host Process for Windows Services stopped working and was closed. Laptop runs fine except my network connection says Connection Status: Unknown The service to detect this status is turned off and McAfee stopped working. Can't run any of the MS tools either. I am suspicous of conficker e but don't know how to detect or remove it. Have seen the b variant on an XP machine at work, but the tools we used on it don't work on Vista.
I am running Vista Home Edition (came on Laptop) upgraded to SP1 with auto-updates on. McAfee was also set for auto-updates and nightly full scans, active e-mail and internet scanning. No recent software downloads except for updates.
Have been having the issue since about April 28. Tried to restore but no dates exist past May 5. Tried the F8 Startup recovery no problems found. Have tried restarting services but they quickly stop again. Uninstalled McAfee and tried AVG. It allowed defintion updates and I scanned all files. No viruses, trojans or malware detected.
Any suggestions? I have a tasklstserv file I can copy and paste if it will help.

That's a bad-sector event. At a command prompt (cmd.exe), run chkdsk /r.
Event ID 7 Source Disk
But it doesn't seem likely that's the cause of the message. When you get another one, note the time and check the Application and System logs for entries at that exact time.
Thanks for the detailed information.
What virus protection do you use?

I keep getting a popup window that says "host process for window services has stopped"
How can I get rid of this?

Hello tribefanz,
Sounds like a compatiblity issue with a program and Windows 7. We need to find out what program is causing the issue though. We can do that through event viewer
1. Click the start orb
2. Select Control Panel
3. System and Security
4. Under Administrative Tools select the Event Viewer
In the event viewer you will want to drill down into the Application and System logs and look for anything with a Red X that says Error. Identify the program causing the problem and then we can go from there.
If I have helped you in any way click the Kudos button to say Thanks.

Generic Host Process For Win32 Services Has Encountered a Problem and Needs to Close - J6480

Computer: eMachines T3025 Athlon
OS: Win XP SP3 (recent clean install)
Printer: HP J6480 on wireless network
Printer prints and scans fine wirelessly. I am using the "small footprint" HP drivers to print and scan.
After some hours with printer connected to the computer wirelessly and printing or scanning, I eventually get the
'Generic Host Process For Win32 Services Has Encountered a Problem and Needs to Close' error message and cannot print or scan any longer unless I shutdown and restart Windows.
I have implemented all the fixes (download, reinstall, etc.) listed for this printer on the hp.com site - namely
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00273968&tmp_task=solveCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc...
with the exception of changing the firewall setttings to allow hpqtra08.exe to run. This file is not found on my system in my install. The files that are allowed to bypass the firewall are shown below (duplicates listed as shown on my screen)
hpoews01.exe
hponicifs01.exe
hponicifs01.exe
hponicifs01.exe
hposid01.exe
hpqkygrp.exe
hpqtax08
hpznui08.exe

Per the Firewall bypass instructions, the files available in the Digital Imaging\bin location on my machine are

What else do I need to do to solve this problem once and for all ?

Firefox crashes with error message: "Plugin Container for Firefox has stopped working"

When I open Firefox it seems to be working fine for one minute, then everything freezes and I receive the following error message:
"Plugin Container for Firefox has stopped working
--> Check online for a solution and close the program
--> Close the Program"
Neither option restores Firefox and I'm left with a frozen (white blurry Not Responding) screen. When I click on the X button, then I get the regular "Firefox is not responding" message and the whole program just shuts down.
Should I disable all plugins and / or this plugin container? How can I do that, if Firefox keeps crashing?
Basically, how can I fix this? Thanks a lot!

I found the issue was with the Nik Filters I was using. The filters were messing with Photoshop's initializing. I uninstalled and reinstalled the filters and now Photoshop works like a charm.
It appears this forum is dead?!
Thankfully, I was able to troubleshoot on my own and figured out the problem...

Error message with QT for Windows Vista

I have an error message from Windows Vista...
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Buffer overrun detected!
Program: C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QuickTimePlayer.exe
A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated.
....and it just close Quick Time, it happens to me all the time, can anybody please help me?

I just answered this problem, so you arent the only one. As I said in the other post, I am only running XP Pro SP2...but I also had the same problem, and it just started recently. I fixed it by going into my Quicktime Preferences....and going to Advanced tab, and upping my Download cache to 300MB, and then clicking on Empty Cache. I also upped by Audio from 16bit to 24bit. Dunno which really fixed it, but those were the 2 things I changed, and it works no problem now.

Photos Not Syncing; Photos Missing From Albums, No Error Message, Running iTunes for Windows & iOS 7.1.2

I am having an issue with syncing my photos on my iOS devices running iOS 7.1.2, the two being an iPhone 4s and iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G.
When I sync photos, I keep on having photos turn up missing from entire albums. I have tried everything I can to resolve this issue from the support article titled <a href="http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3697">iTunes: Unable to sync photos</a>, and nothing has successfully worked in any kind of permanent form. I have even gone so far as to sync albums individually with a limit of around 400-500 total photos per sync, (give or take), and tried using what very little options I have on the photos tab for my devices in iTunes to essentially trick the devices to sync the missing photos. Despite this, iTunes still fails to sync newly added photos from the source location.
I have even made the attempt of re-installing iOS 7 on both devices, and restoring from backup. Again with no avail.
My best guess for my iPhone is that as it is a 16 GB, not all of 15.6 GB of photos will sync to the device, (go figure), but that doesn't explain why recent photos aren't added OR why my iPad 2 of 64 GB has missing photos.
As of this post, I have an estimated 38,940 files, spread across 1,703 folders, (a large amount of folders being in some of the folders; from my knowledge never being more than two folders in). They are all in one dedicated folder on a hard drive I've dedicated to iTunes and music related files, (for the sake of AVOIDING this kind of nonsense, I might add).
As for the system OS and iTunes, I am running Windows 7 64 bit, and I am using iTunes 11.2.2.3, but will have updated to iTunes 11.3 by the time anyone responds.

I have the exact same problem.
Same kind of photos/videos taken with the same camera randomly sync.
Did 11.3 fix this issue?
Sincerely

Which OS? Which sound card?
Something went wrong when you updated your drivers.
Were there any error messages when you updated your sound drivers?
Can you adjust volume on Windows 'mixer' (Control Panel-->Sounds and Multimedia --> Audio tab:Sound Playback:Volume)? If not then somehow you have maybe 'lost (control over)' windows kmixer.
If you got XP then try if reinstalling SP2 helps anything. Check also first, if "Audio Service" is running (on services manager).

Generic Host process for WIN32 encountered an error and needed to close

Hi,
I hv installed SAP ECC6.0 SR3 on WIndows 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition. Many times i get an popup message on Windows Server "Generic Host process for WIN32 encountered an error and needed to close"
I hv checked the Event Viewer, in Event Viewer it shows the application error.
Consequences of this error is that my Transport path //hostname/sapmnt/trans becomes inaccesible, and I have to take the restart of Windows server to solve the problem. ONce Windows server is restarted for some time transports work, Again when receiving the same error popup on Windows, Transport path goes down.
Can anyone give input on this???

Hello,
You have posted a question that is related to system transports. Unfortunately this category is not related to these kind of questions. SAP TM deals with logistics in the real world - moving pallets, containers, loading trucks, etc.
To learn more about SAP TM please visit http://service.sap.com/scm-tm
Therefore I will now move this thread to the category Software Logistics. Thank you for your understanding.
Kind regards,

ICal Error: "No virtual host found for iCal Service" - Help!

Trying to set up iCal on OS X Server 10.5.6
Server is up and running and successfully providing web services on its FQDN. Server is not currently used to support network users / services, but as and when it does it will be the Master Opendirectory server.
I have created a couple of test accounts on the server (simply in the Users group) and enabled both for Calendar Access.
I have provided the details of the FQDN on the iCal page, and checked that the default port (8008) has been opened in the firewall.
In web services there is one virtual domain (using name based virtual server) and the default domain in operation. Both appear to be functioning as would be expected.
When I click on 'start service' for iCal, I get this error.
"No virtual host found for iCal service"
I cannot find any information about this in iCal manual, or online documentation. Can anyone here provide pointer to where this information is, or what it means?
Would be most grateful.

Hey there,
See if any of the solutions provided in either of these older threads can steer you in the right direction.
