COM Surrogate crash (gdiplus.dll)
This is not a BSOD, but a crash. When I double-click an image, it opens with Windows Photo Viewer. In task manager, I see DllHost.exe is the process that Windows Photo Viewer runs in (this is Windows 7 x64). If I close the window, it takes about 10-15 seconds for DllHost.exe to actually close; if I double-click another image while it is closing, I get a "COM Surrogate has stopped working" window; the application is DllHost.exe and the fault module is gdiplus.dll.
Here are some crash dumps, all of this same procedure and crash:
Download dllhost.exe.3732.dmp from Sendspace.com - send big files the easy way
Download dllhost.exe.4964.dmp from Sendspace.com - send big files the easy way
Download dllhost.exe.3712.dmp from Sendspace.com - send big files the easy way
Download dllhost.exe.2636.dmp from Sendspace.com - send big files the easy way
Download dllhost.exe.364.dmp from Sendspace.com - send big files the easy way
I can workaround the problem by using a different image viewer, but if someone could please analyze one or more of the dump files and if I can find a fix, then maybe it will fix a printer problem I'm having too.
Regarding existing solutions that can be found online: This is Win7, I don't have Kaspersky, Nero or any codecs, 64-bit doesn't allow me to add dllhost.exe to the DEP exclusions, I have Adobe CS5 not CS3, I have the latest graphics driver for my system.
Thanks for your time :)
