Windows XP Sp1 (all updates) is my current OS
123GB (files)
40GB (main)
20GB (linux)
256DDR PC2100
AlthonXP 2Ghtz(1.67)
when i right click a file the system crashes. basically
i thought that this would be something that i installed recently. i uninstalled the newest programs that could be causing a fuss. no luck.
second was that maybe extensions(winamp, winrar, PGP) were over clogging the menu. so that right clicking the menu would take s ages to load thus crashing the system. ihave been into winrar and removed all the menu enteries. this for a second worked but then a couple of minutes later it was back to normal system crashses.
send to menu. this was the next idea i came up withh. maybe my old send to menu entereis were casuing a problem. i remembered that i had set a link to a network drive that no longer was there. so as i couldn't delete these files at all i could only move them outa the folder. i moved them intothe recylce bin. this deleted them and cleared the send to.
still not working. right clicking a folder or even deleting a folder causes the system to crash. just hangs like an endless loop. restarted explorer.exe brings me back. but interacting which folders
i have ran Anti-virus scans and adware programs alike to remove any bugs that ccould be causing this. still no luck.
any ideas wouldn't go unread.
