 | possibility of mmtask.tsk freezing my desktop upon startup. Recently sent file to floppy, then opened file in wordpad and deleted script. Used floppy as backup in case task was not problem, but Dr. Watson suggested exiting the task since there were problems with the freezeup and having to restart system.

| Nothing except it's always causing a general protection fault. My antivirus, spyware, firewall don't catch it.

 | Causes system freezes, and malfunctions in many different software (especially midi audio).

| mmtask.tsk is a normally hidden process which is instigated by Microsoft Windows 9x and ME only. It allows Windows to operate a multi-tasking system for multimedia based data. This program is important for the stable and secure running of your computer and should not be terminated under ME especially unless u want to see quite a few problems with explorer and multimedia issues. There is a mmtask.exe that is a problem and it will have several files (all exe, dialer, mmtask0.exe, mmtask1.exe, etc) which must be deleted.
