I have (had) an intermittent problem whereby XP crashes with a corrupt
registry problem. I read it could be a device driver which needs
upgrading. However if I try start Device Manager to see lwhat drivers
are installed this causes the crash straight away. Has anybody
experienced this before or know how to circumvent device manager?
thanks

Probably better off posting this in a purely xp group rather than the video
one.

Thanks _ I'll do that. Just saw this branch had drivers and I'm sure
it's something to do with a corrupt one
