[Please Help! Spooler Subsystem App Error]

Hi all,

I have exhausted everything I could find or think of and can't fix this problem. Out of nowhere, I started having problems on Vista boot.

"spooler subsystem app error" pops up on boot, or any time I try to load the Spool Service in Vista.

I tried Microsoft's registry fixes, they failed.

I tried using cleanspl.. doesn't work with Vista

I tried cleaning out the System32\Spool directory, that failed

I tried re-installing the printer driver, it fails

I tried a restore point, that failed

I scanned for viruses and spyware, that didn't fix it.

I even tried a full registry fix program, which also failed

I'm running a Canon Pixma ip5300

Hopefully someone can help me fix this it's driving me nuts, and i've spent over 6 hours trying to fix it
