So far we’ve only seen rundll32 problems after patching a VistaSP1 system with the original VistaGlazz, using the “patch anyway” option. It seems somewhat unlikely that anybody did in fact use the “patch anyway” option from the old VG on their SP1 system, but we want to be sure that this is not the cause of the rundll32 problems. You can expect a new beta release in the next few days that’ll address that specific point.
Update 2008/05/21:
We ran into some problems while creating a fix for the 64bit systems suffering from the problem described above. Yvo patched his 64bit Vista with VG 1.0 using the patch anyway option, so we could see firsthand what that would lead to. Apparently Vista didn’t like it. While Vista32 just throws some rundll32 errors, Vista64 will no longer boot in normal mode. A trip to safe mode and some file copying via the command prompt is what it took to restore things. We’ve not decided yet on what the best way is to help those of you running Vista64 and suffering from these kind of problems.
Long story short: It’s taking a little bit longer than expected. Though we will probably have a new version ready by Friday, we really want to perform some tests before uploading it to our site. Expect a new release somewhere Saturday.
In the meanwhile: If there is anyone with rundll32-problems that didn’t use the patch anyway of VG 1.0, please let us know exactly what steps you took that led to your problems. This way you will help us in identifying what went wrong and may lead to a fix for this problem.
Yeah this is great.I was hoping someone came whit a fix addressing this problem.Even If my OS is Vita Basic,I just want the custom themes.
Anyways,Thanks for addressing that problem!

Thank you
Hey Silence,
Sorry to hear about your problem. Could you please describe the steps you took that led to this problem? E.g. did you use the patch anyway option of VG1?
I’m getting the same problem than Silence’s since I tried to patch Vista SP1 with VG1 - as I had already patched Vista before the SP1.
Hi Codegazer-Team,
2 days ago did the VG v1 on my PC..I didnt know that it is only for the normal vista without sp1 ;Q so i got this hostprocess (Rundll32) problem when I try to change my windows Design…a further problem i notice is that my WinRar dont works anymore..It hangs on when I try to open some RAR files
.. so I tryed VistaGlazzBeta2 but still this problem..
Winrar, Windows moviemaker dont works T.T can u please help me?
I use Vista Premium 32bit and got all the updates for it …
Hey Duc Anh,
Thanks for the feedback. I’m pretty much convinced that beta3 will fix your problem, but I’ll attempt to replicate your situation as soon as I start testing anyway (just to be sure). Please expect a new version somewhere tomorrow.
So which version is not supposed to cause error on a 32bit system?
thy very much Bernd =) i will test beta3 and give u feedback
I download the second version but the problem continue please help me!!!:(
That run… problem nearly killed my os!
When I went to logg on the message was there, it was always there, I wouldn’t have had a problem if hadn’t somehow disabled my keyboard. So therefore I couldn’t ’start using the cd rom’ etc.
I hope to see this fixed
The Vista Glazz Beta 3 setup will not run i get a error. im also getting the rudll32 error. whats so bad about this i dont have system restore because im using a tweaked version.
CAn someone plz tell me if they are gonna fix this error or not…..!!! my computer fucked up so i have windows classic theme opn and i tealy whanna have the vista theme back!!
Plz fix this error
i am getting rundll problem…32bit
I read somewhere that to apply themes VistaGlazz was an easy way to do this. Since doing it on my SP1 machine I have had a rundll32 error anytime I try and personalize my “Windows Color and Appearance” or “Display Settings”. If the new version of VistaGlazz will fix this - I will wait until Saturday, if it wont fix already existing rundll32 errors caused by VistaGlazz then I need some good advice.
I also am not highly appreciating my Windows Classic look.
