Kernel32 errors and what it does

The Kernel32.dll file has been around since Windows 95 and is still used in modern operating systems today.
The purpose of it is to handle memory management operations, which is why Kernel errors can be so common.

When your computer is started the Kernel is loaded into its own protected memory space which cannot be used by any other system resources. Which in itself generates problems when older programs try to use the occupied space.

As we said earlier as it manages memory operations, errors can be a frequent occurrence, ranging from.

Damaged page file – Delete and recreate the page file.
Low disk space – Windows cleanup tools may help here.
Disk file format errors – Check disk on reboot.
Spyware & Viruses – Antispyware and Antivirus
Old Applications not designed for the system – Right Click on the application and from the compatibility Tab choose the Operating System that it is compatible with.
Incorrect version of Kernel32.dll or Corrupt – Replace from System CD
Faulty RAM – Download one of the many RAM checking utilities or set your BIOS to run a slow POST (power on self test) check.

Damaged Hardware Driver – When does the error occur can help to pinpoint this.
Control Panel component is damaged – Run a system repair.
Wrong BIOS settings – Change BIOS setting to recommended.
Graphics hardware settings – Reduce the Graphics performance from display settings.

Corrupt applications – either repair or re-install.
Wrong version of Java – check which version of Java you require , you can run multiple versions if needed.

When it comes down to it, how much time do you want to put into the error, it can be far quicker to either run a system restore to the point your system was running ok or running a system repair.
