svchost.exe keeps throwing "unhandled win32 exception" errors

N

Recently I've been bombarded with Visual Studio JIT Debugger popup
error messages for no apparent reason. The messages generally read
something like:

"An unhandled win32 exception occurred in svchost.exe [xxx].
Just-In-Time debugging this exeption failed with the following error:
No installed debugger has Just-In-Time debugging enabled. In Visual
Studio...."

where "xxx" are usually 952 or 948 or similar.

Now if I enable JIT in VS.NET I'll be getting standalone windows
instead asking me if I want to debug with VS. In both cases (JIT
enabled or not) if I click on "OK" or "Yes/No" 2 things will happen:

1. my wireless modem will be killed and cannot be detected anymore,
meaning no more internet
2. same story with my audio - play movie and got no sound, and TV
capture program crashes because it can't detect audio etc.

Both of the problems above can be "solved" with a reboot.

Now I've since learned to leave those popups alone and move them out of
the screen and pretend them don't exist. That way I still get to play
with my internet and listen to music. Unfortunately since these
messages will come up on average every 5~10 minutes or so before long
you'll see 50~100 different instances of "vsjitdebugger.exe" in the
task manager, each taking up 100k to 3000k of memory, and the system
will become unbearably slow that I'll be forced to reboot.

I have just run deep scans of Norton AV and Adaware with latest updates
but found nothing suspicious. Does anyone have any idea how to find out
the cause of the problem and how to fix this? Thanks for any help.

Or if anyone can suggest a way to get my internet and audio back
without rebooting that would be great too.

Hi Nick,

Your system has a program installed, which is looking for a device it needs, that your system doesn't have. You need to locate that program and uninstall that program.

If you have the Sound Drivers installed and the system isn't detecting them, then open up Sounds in the Control Panel and click on Audio. Check the Default Devices selected for Playback and Recording.

OK but how do I do that? Is there any error log I can use to do this? I
can't find anything in event viewer and vs.net jit debugger is a
useless piece of junk.

I didn't solve it. It just decided to go away some day. Go figure.

The problem is caused by Window Update client. If this prog is startet
before the sound devices is properly loaded, this problem occures.
1. Deactivate the Windows Update (all options)
2 Reboot
3 Verfy that the Sound devices are loaded (ie start volume control)
4. Update Windows manually from the MS Win Update site.

If someone knows how to load sound devices before WU starts, please
notify

connect to the web through a proxy, windows update become erroneous.
and "an unhandled win32 exception occured in svchost.exe [****]"
exception is thrown which cannot be debugged. Yes it is sth relevant
to "Sound Device". Because "there are no active mixer devices
available" error is also given.
Thanks Tors

We have no idea what "same issues" other that the subject of your message".
The details related to your particilar problem are needed.

Have a look in the System and Application logs in Event Viewer for
Errors and Warnings and post copies here. Don't post any more than 48
hours ago.

You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Control Panel,
Administrative Tools, and Event Viewer. When researching the meaning
of the error, information regarding Event ID, Source and Description
are important.

HOW TO: View and Manage Event Logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double
click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a
button resembling two pages. Click the button and close Event
Viewer.Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of
the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from
Event Viewer.
