Hi Nellie...this is what I found online. I hope it helps :) SheDevil ************************************************************************************** The file "hpcmpmgr.exe" is related to HP Component Manager, a background program of HP all-in-one software. "This utility will disable the HP Component Manager (hpcmpmgr.exe) on your computer, preventing any future calls to HP Servers for this program. The entries for the HP Component Manager software will be removed from the Windows Registry. HP advises owners using Windows XP to make a System Restore point prior to running this utility and another after it has been run. Click Start, Programs, Accessories, System Tools, and then System Restore to run System Restore. To resolve the error message, I recommend the following patch download which will disable the HP Component Manager software: http://home.comcast.net/~lyvwyre/hpcmpmgr_disable.exe If the problem persists, remove the hpcmpmgr.exe from the Startup using MSConfig utility within Windows OS. To do the same, perform the following steps: 1. Click Start and Run. 2. Type MSCONFIG and press Enter. 3. Click the Startup tab. 4. Clear the checkbox related to hpcmpmgr.exe. 5. Click OK. 6. Restart the system. This should resolve the issue. ----- Original Message ----- From: Gaynel To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, May 21, 2007 9:44 AM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: End Program - HPCMPMGR.EXE I have this error: End Program - HPCMPMGR.EXE "This program is not responding." And so I have to click on this window each time after already trying to turn off my computer. It's irritating. I'm hoping someone can give me a quick fix to eliminate this.
