MSGSRV32.exe msgsrv32.exe Windows 32-bit VxD Message Server. For more information on it's function and why it's needed, see here. Note - why some people have it listed in start-up programs I don't know but I was asked to include it here. It automatically runs in the background

Hi,

You could try the following things:
Go to Control Panel/Power Options and disable APM completely. Reboot.

If that doesn't do it, try to remove and uninstall Dial Up Networking in Software/Windows Setup

It could also possibly be your modem. Remove it in Device Manager, and reinstall it with the most recent driver.

And here's a MS article: Msgsrv32.exe Stops Responding and Then the Computer Stops Responding

Good luck,
