"Host Process Rundll32 Has Stopped Working" on my new X200s

100% reproducible :
1. boot
2. log on
3. close lid
4. open lid
5. "Host Process Rundll32 Has Stopped Working"
I get this on my new X200s which is nearly in out-of-the-box condition. It runs Vista with SP1. I installed a few programs (Thunderbird, Chrome and OpenOffice) and configured it to do nothing when the lid closes.
I guess I'll try installing the Power Management driver update (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-4GXPEG) and then Vista SP2.
Any other ideas ?
Thanks,
Jean-Louis

The driver update did not help.
In the meantime I noticed that the power gauge vanishes from the task bar after the error message.

Office 2013: Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working

Hi,
I have problems with adding additional e-mail address to my Outlook. When I open the Mail Control Panel Item, go to my Exchange Profile and add a new e-mail address I get a popup indicating that the Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working.
The only way of adding extra e-mail addresses is to remove my entire Outlook Profile. In the initial wizard I can add all Exchange mailboxes that I need (I have 3). After I've configured my Outlook profile I always receive the Rundll32 error. When I try
to create a second Outlook profile I still get the same error.
I've tried the following:
- Repair OST file
- Repair Office -> Control Panel and Online Repair
- Reinstall Office
- Reinstall my entire PC
It doesn't matter which e-mail address I add in the initial Outlook configuration wizard. I always receive the error when I try to add a new mailbox, even when I add a mailbox that does not exist (e.g. [email protected]).
Even after reinstalling my PC I still get the same error. I'm using Windows 8.1 (x64) and Office 2013 (32-bit) on a Lenovo W540. None of my colleagues have this issue. It's a domain joined PC and we are not using Roaming Profiles.
For troubleshooting I also created a local account on my laptop but I get the same issues with this account.

Hi,
I'm also using Office 2013 32-bit and Windows 8.1 64-bit on my computer but doesn't get this issue. As you mentioned you reinstalled your PC, the first thing I suggest is to make sure your Windows and Office have been up to date.
The second thing is to make sure you are using the system with an administrator account, this ensures you the enough permission.
There is a possibility that some 3rd-party programs are interfering with "Mail", we can try to perform a clean boot to determine whether background programs are interfering with this:
1.Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search. Or, if you are using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, and then click
Search.
2.Type msconfig in the search box, and then tap or click
msconfig.
3.On the Services tab of the System Configuration
dialog box, tap or click to select the Hide all Microsoft services
check box, and then tap or click Disable all.
4.On the Startup tab of the System Configuration
dialog box, tap or click Open Task Manager.
5.On the Startup tab in Task Manager, for each startup item, select the item and then click
Disable.
6.Close Task Manager.
7.On the Startup tab of the System Configuration
dialog box, tap or click OK, and then restart the computer.
If in clean boot the issue doesn't exist, the issue was probably caused by the 3rd-party programs. For further information to troubleshoot, you can refer to this kb below:

It's recommended to download and install

"Host Process Rundll32 Has Stopped Working"

Whenever I try to access the advanced settings option in my TouchPad, I get this this message that Rundll32 has stopped working. This is frustrating as I can't figure out what went wrong. Was working fine about a month ago.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Windows Host Process Rundll32 has stopped working

Starting today, my computer pops up with this error every 10-15 min. for no reason. I've looked around for a solution, and I can't seem to find one. I don't have Nero or K-lite, so I assume they're not the issue. This is the text in the additional information

Hi,
What’s the result in Clean boot mode?
If this issue does not persists, I would suggest you check your applications.
If it still exists in Clean Boot mode, please run SFC command to fix system file.

I have already tried running
sfc /scannow via command line and it did not find any integrity violations. Haven't installed anything new on the machine either. Any thoughts on how to fix this? Rolling back the machine to a previous state is not an option as there is just too much
data on the machine that changes daily.

Hi LBJ,
When do you get this error,open a folder or run a program ?
1.First of all ,we should ensure that the Windows and the drivers has got the latest update.
2. If the error occurs when opening folders that contain video files, try this :
Open Control Panel > Folder Options > Always show Icons, Never Thumbnails
3.If this issue occured when you ran a program,I recommend you to reinstall the program.
4.If the issue persists ,I recommend you to try clean boot to have a check. If it does, the problematic software can be located by dichotomy. To perfcorm a clean boot:

HOST APP SERVICE has stopped working

I keep getting the message "HOST APP SERVER has stopped working" whenever I try to select the home button on my screen. It simply says that Windows will close the application and notify me when a solution has been found, but this has been going
on for a week and it has yet to message me a solution. The error message isn't very specific as to what is going on and I have no idea what to do!

Hi kgabriella,
Please open Event Viewer and check the related logs, if possible, post the information here.
Further, follow the advice posted by Arnav Sharma, follow the guide to boot into clean boot and check the issue again.
Besides, see if the thread below would help:

ITunes has stopped working when connecting new iPhone 6

I am getting what seems to be a common error "iTunes has stopped working" which I have tried many different tricks for fixing that I have found online, but nothing seems to work.
I have been using an iPhone 5 and backing up and syncing with no problems, the only problem being when I try to access the iTunes Store. This didn't bother me too much as I can access the store on my phone and everything else on iTunes worked fine.
But today I bought an iPhone 6 and as soon as I connect it (whether iTunes is already open or opens when I plug the iPhone in) I get the above error message and iTunes closes. So I am unable to sync my back up on to the new phone or use it at all.
Can anyone help with a recent fix for this, or a way around it?
I have tried copying recommended files into the correct folder, re-installing, opening as administrator and many other things I have come across online, but majority of these seem to be from a year or more ago. I am using Windows 7 on a PC, with the latest iTunes that I have just re-installed (again).
Any help would be really appreciated!

Same here....also when I restart iTunes afterward, all my devices don't even show up in iTunes at all until after you restart the computer
Even then, the problem persists. And I've tried all kinds of troubleshooting techniques

Catalyst Control Center: Host Application has stopped working (Error)

Hi, I have anHP Envy 14-1110nr Notebook PC, with Windows 7 64-bit, and Catalyst Control Center (To configure switchable graphics) doesn't work. I believe to be stuck on my low performance GPU,and can't switch. I cannot load anything to do with my switchable graphics, and am at a loss for what to do (I'm a very inexperienced computer user). I have browsed other forums related to this but am scared that I'll destroy my computer by downloading the wrong thing. This all started after I got a virus that caused me to need to reset my computer from an earlier stage, please help.

Hi,
Try using Recovery Manager to reinstall your AMD Graphics Driver - the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the relevant document on the link below.
Recovery Manager - Windows 7
After the reinstallation has completed, restart the notebook.

Itunes has stopped working - quicktime will not open missing rundll32.exe

I have a Gateway computer with windows vista. When I try to open itunes I get the message that itunes has stopped working and windows will close. When I try to open quicktime in the control panel I get the message the windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working. I can not uninstall quicktime. I have downloaded and installed itunes and quicktime many times but this does not help. Please someone help me. I am at wits end. How do other people have itunes working with windows vista?

Hey MrsBeth, it looks like your PC is on a network or something. I am uncomfortable giving advice since I don't know what's going on there.
What I am comfortable with is these directions below. Give yourself full control and ownership the the entire C: drive and all its subfolders. And temporarily turn off UAC for good measure - you can turn it back on after you've installed iTunes.
Let's cross our fingers that the install goes through!
