    Are you running any Theme Packages other than the typical XP stuff?

    For me sometimes RunDLL32 takes up so much CPU power that the comp just hangs. Such as when looking at diaplays properties. In just keep on pressing OK to try and push it but it just won't. So I open up Task Manager and find that there are five RunDLL32 tasks running. I just end the process as last resort.

    Just a thought and you probably might have, but has anyone tried using the utils from www.sysinternals.com like FileMon or Process Explorer, see what errors may be occuring?
