schedsvc.dll crash after 15 minutes
-
When my Windows XP stays idle for 15 minutes,the system freezes with a popup saying "Generic Host Process for Win32 services...". It seems that the scheduler service is crashing (found it via debugging) when it tries to execute system tasks after 15 minutes of inactivity. If I disable the task scheduler service, the problem disappears. I would want to know if it is possible to know which system task is crashing, or if is possible to know what system tasks is trying to do (there is a place in the registry with these tasks?). I don't have anything in C:\Windows\Tasks.

In my opinion, you should use event viewer[^] to check the history of your system performance.

The event viewer doesn't help me. It shows roughly the same error as the popup (schedsvc.dll crash accessing wrong address). I can force this error to happen executing Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks I would want to know which one of these idleTasks produces the error. -- Miguel A. Vilariño Software Developer

In my opinion, you should not ignore event viewer. First try to access task manager and go to the tab Process. Then click on the column name Mem Usage in order to sort the system consume size. But if your computer become crash and not working, ou should return back to your application log in event viewer in order to view an application state of each user.
