Whatever you were saying about it being unimportant, did you read anything else about it by any chance? Don't assume because one place tells you what it does that something in Windows might not be important. Everything in Windows is tied together.
Msgsrv32.exe is a program (Windows 32-bit message server) that performs several background functions necessary for Windows operation.
These functions include:
* Load installable Windows drivers at startup and unload them at shutdown
* Run the shell program (usually Explorer.exe) and re-run the shell if it fails to respond
* Mediate Plug and Play messages among various parts of the operating system
* Coordinate automatic responses to Setup programs. This includes checking whether a Setup program has improperly overwritten Windows files, and optionally restoring the Windows versions of those files
* Display the initial logon dialog box if networking is enabled
* Play the system startup and shutdown sounds
It is quite an important little program. See right up there where I listed, "runs the shell"? Yeah, that's something that you want in proper working order.
