thermo Posted November 25, 2005 Report Share Posted November 25, 2005 (edited) XP SP1+2I've been getting a 'Dwwin.exe DLL Initialization Failed' error ('application failed to initialize because windows station is shutting down') everytime I shut down for a couple of weeks now. Just seem to appear for no apparent reason. Event Viewer Shows > 'The description for Event ID ( 1 ) in Source ( SSScsiSV ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag ...etc etc'I was using SS3.2 at the time so I tried upgrading to SS3.3 but this didn't solve the problem. Used full uninstall procedure. I could disable Dr Watson which stops the problem but I prefer this left on.As SSScsiSV is a SS process I tried exiting Simple Burner on taskbar before shutting down. With this shut off the error message dosen't occur. (and SSScsiSV does not show in Event Viewer as error)Is there a fix or a missing DLL I might need to clear up this problem properly?SS3.3 seems to work okay otherwise.

Christopher Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 You say you have Service Pack 1+2? Which is it? If you have 1, immediately upgrade to 2.Nonetheless, Try reinstalling via the directions in the FAQ. Sounds like you have a corrupted install.

thermo Posted December 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 SP2 disc is current(Windows XP Home disc SP1 included)I tried to reinstall but I still have the 'Dwwin.exe DLL Initialization Failed' shutdown error. Problem I notice uninstalling openMG Secure Module. SSScsiSV is not showing up in event viewer now though. The above error message does not occur with SS uninstalled. 7 out of 10 times if I exit Simple Burner on taskbar I don't get message at shut down either. Program is otherwise functioning without a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thermo Posted December 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 I meant to add, when uninstalling the openMG Secure Module I had an error saying detected earlier version of Simple Burner at which point the system reboots.I wonder if I am removing everything. I couldn't find any previous version. I deleted Temp files though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atrain Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 i guess if it's getting that parlous you could delete all the sony related folders on your hard drive & all sony related registry items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
