How can you resolve Outlook Express 6 crashing with msimn exe caused a gpf in module directxdb dll?

Problem with Outloook Express

I would try:

  • Going to windowsupdate.com and getting all critical updates. It might re-write a corrupt file.
  • Going to support.microsoft.com and searching for key words from your error message.

Here are more opinions and answers from other FAQ Farmers:

  • I resolved the problem which seemed to be purely that the inbox was over 500mb in size and by archiving it it sorted the problem out. Sadly Microsoft's support on Outlook express is lamentable!

  • My personal solution to this problem is to go to www.mozilla.org and grab a free copy of the Thunderbird opensource email client. It's loaded with goodies, and I find it a lot easier to set up and use than Outlook or Outlook Express. Try it, you'll like it. Grab Firefox while you're there, too.
