I recently installed a new printer, Epson Stylus C62 but kept my old Epson Stylus 680. Soon after, I started receiving an error message when I started my computer, just before the printer icon was due to appear, saying "spool32 caused an invalid page fault in module SPOOL32.exe at 0167:00402015"... Then the computer hangs. It does not happen every time but very often. I removed both printers and installed only the new one again but it didn't help. I have Windows 98, by the way.

I have experienced the same issue and this is how i fixed it. You need access to a Windows ME install CD. Extract the spool32 file from the cab files. Remember where you extracted it. Now go to your system and from the run command type sfc (system file checker) and tell it you want to replace a system file and replace your old spool32 with the new one from you Windows ME cab files. Good luck
