Weird problem number 2.

I've had it with this computer ****...

ok... anyone came accross one day when when you click a "file", simple as that, your explorer shuts down ?

I scanned, no viruses, nor did I do anything to put viruses on the machine... Just installed the stuff and problems came to my face....

You click on the file, and then, the explorer shuts down.
 
Does it vanish briefly then come back again ???
 
Okay, standard questions - sorry:

1) From your post it seems that everything was fine one day and not the next. Did you do anything in between (tweaks, new s/w, new hw, etc)?

2) Have you checked out the event log for errors (Control Panel - Administrative Tools - event viewer)?

3) Look in msconfig and see what's starting - anything unusual?

4) You can disable everything from msconfig and basically do a selective startup and see if the problem still exists. If so, you may have to do a repair install and / or a complete reinstall. If the problem is not there on a clean boot (selective startup), start adding things back one at a time until the problem recurs. Then you'll have identified the culprit.
 
Could be something that is solved with the right patch
Have you got all the latest updates ???
I highly recommend downloading & installing BigFix

http://www.bigfix.com/website/index.html

This will inform you & download any patches your system may need.
such as
Application Compatibility Update Q313484
XP Compatability Updates Q319580
and so on

Tried everything... None worked...

Maybe comes from converting fat to NTFS...

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
