Hi all,

I have an XP home edition unit, that gives the ol' Explorer has encouuntered problems and must close. Then gives me the option to send/not send error report to Microsoft. I have installed the patch from M$ that says it will report back if it knows about it, but nothing back from them.

This happens mostly, when browsing my hard drives.

Especially if I right click and look into the properites of them.

It seems to happen more with my secondary drvie,(an add on) than my C drive.

I have searched, but can't find anything that shows my specific issue.

Mostly, the machine seems to run fine, but does not seem to like browsing around. It doesn't matter which login used, admin and restricted users alike get the same problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

Best Regards,

Marlon

My personal credo:
Do well unto others, else you will, or at least should, not respect what you see in the mirror at the end of the day!
 
Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Event Viewer. Look for the details on the error, particularly the .DLL file that likely caused the exception to be thrown.
Post it back here.
