**Original Title**Upgraded to Windows 7 and installed print driver, now when I try to print, I get this message: 'Print driver host for 32 bit applications has stopped working'
I just upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7(64 bit) and have a Xerox Phaser 6180MFP. I downloaded the 64 bit driver and installed it. The test page printed out just fine during installation. Now I'm trying to print from Word 2003 and from Internet Explorer 8 and all I get is a message that 'print driver host for 32bit applications has stopped working'. The system cannot solve the problem and I can't find anything helpful on the microsoft support site.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Most likely the Lexmark driver is corrupting the memory of the splwow64.exe process. Launch the 64bit version of IE rather than the 32bit version. The splwow64 process is only used by 32bit applications.

I have a similar problem. Windows 7 64bits, office 2007. Each time that I try to open a Word document it appears the following warning:
"Do you want to authorize the following program to modify this computer", If I click NO it closes Word and if I click YES the following happens:
But the must estrange thing its that I dont have a printer set-up in this computer.
Can anyone help.
Thank you very much
UPDATE on Windows 7 X64 drivers for the Phaser 6280 laser printers.
Call Xerox support @877-571-7765 and they will help you as there are beta drivers available, but only through them, they will be posted on the web but not for about another month.
Two thumbs up for Xerox Support!
