spoolsv.exe

[golfermom]

I am having a problem with my printer spooler. It isn't holding the start. I can change it but as soon as I exit I get an error that says spoolsv.exe isn't working. Anybody have any ideas? Can anybody help, also none of my ports are showing up on my computer either. HELP

Did this just start occurring? If so, any idea what triggered it?

Are you using an USB printer, or is it connected to parallel port? If it's the latter, then is the port working properly?
