Just recently I started to get an error on boot up "Microsoft Search Indexer
has stopped working". When I run 'check online for solution' it runs for a
bit then disappears.

Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH

Going to indexing option shows the indexing is not running. 'Modify' and
'Advanced' are greyed out.

How do I correct this problem? More importantly what are the consequence of
not having the indexer running?

Steve

Still would not start, it tried to start then failed.
Since it is not a performance issue, and do very little searches I will not
let it worry me.
I will just disable it.
