    If you follow the thread above, you will see what helped most people. What solved the problem for me was downloading a specific driver. It WASN'T the driver recommended by Dell in the downloads page; it was a different driver. Once I did that (and it was a large download!), I haven't experienced the problem at all. Problem solvled.

    I see above, though, that Dell Support has created a new Dell Support Center for downloading that supposedly fixes the problem (maybe it contains the appropriate driver?). I still have the old Dell Support Center, so I'm hesitant to change that, out of fear that the PC Module error will reappear.

    But for me, it was the driver. I have Windows 7 64 bit.

    mattpollard,

    Thank you for using the Dell Community Forum.

    You could try reinstalling the pc checkup to see if that will resolve the error. You can also look at the links below to view what others have done to resolve this error.

    Honeycombe,

     

    Try the instructions to Uninstall Dell Support Center then reinstall it. If the problems is still there, please let me know and I'll contact the person from PC Doctor to help.

    Hi PudgyOne,

    I have exactly the same symptoms as Honeycombe ("PC Doctor Module has stopped working" regularly appearing on my screen). Per your suggestion, I have fully removed the Dell Support Center software using Control Panel and the 'full cleanup' as you described. I re-installed a fresh copy of Dell Support Center and within minutes got the "PC Doctor Module has stopped working" error message again.

    Looks like we need the support from PC Docotr?

    You can try the Dell PC-Doctor, Inc. Support and see if someone can help.

    mattpollard,

    We have seen this occur on 64 bit systems running the Synaptics driver version 15.2.5.2 but it is resolved with version 15.2.20.x which can be found at www.synaptics.com/.../drivers

    On a semi-related note, I see you are running an outdated version of Dell Support Center.  You may want to download and install the latest version at www.dell.com/dellsupportcenter

    I too am having this issue.  Running Vista under 32bit.  Am running the current version of Support Center.  More suggestions appreciated.

    I'll try downloading the 15.2.20.x driver. I have 15.2.6 now, which is what is on Dell's download page for updating drivers & such.

    The reinstallation of the support center didn't fix the problem, just as it didn't for Cairnapple above, unfortunately, despite my high hopes. But I'll try the new driver.
