COM surrogate has stopped working
 

Just finished up getting everything on here that I wanted and I was getting ready to run vantage and 3dmark 06 and I get a "com surrogate has stopped working" error everytime I launch them.

A quick look over google seems like it can have something to do with nero and divix (neither of which are on here) I also can't get the wei to finish, it fails at the end everytime with an error about getting an error from hardware or drivers or something.

All my games are working great, but I'd like to run these just for ****s and giggles.

A search through futuremark's website proved useless, and all I could find was that it may have something to do with the future mark system info dll. Was wondering if anyone has ever run into this problem before.

Maybe this will help put it into perspective>
