Hooo NO !!! Why Explorer.exe is suddenly taking 100% CPU !??!?

[Guest]

Hi,

Very strange.
I'm running Vista pretty well since some months. Stop my notebook yesterday
night and restart this morning !
Result ? Explorer is taking 100 CPU !!!
I can launch a program like word using a shortcut but no way to use
explorer. I mean the Vista task bar, quick launch, or Vista logo to go to
"All programs" !!

Yes I made some test and rebuild !! (CHKDSK /R/P/F 3 times, ...)
I notice one thing when starting in safe mode. CRCDISK.sys is the last
library to be loaded and directly after CPU is 100%.
Regarding this problem I try different things again without any success !

The strange part is that many people are talking about a problem like this
one but NO ENTRIES on microsoft support !

I spend my day to turn around and must say that I'm sucks!
What can I do ?

I really hope someone from Microsoft can help because for me the last think
to do is to re-install Vista !!!
The problems ?
1) take a BU of all important files without the interface and going trough
directories
2) Is that thing going to happend again !
3) Takes hours (days ...) to re-install Vista and all apps !

I must say that I love Vista but I have many many problems !!
.... and all my machines in my company are running Vista on the Network !

So again, PLEASE Microsoft, read carefully this message and give me some
help to turn around this crazy thing !!!
Not only for me but for all the people with the same problem. And talk about
it on "support.microsoft.com" !!!!

Best regards and thanks !!

Have you scanned for viruses, have you checked your system for malware and
adware as that's what this sounds like.

Hi,

Yes, I have antivirus and malware/adware software. So normaly no virus ...
To test again I must use a bootable DVD as I can't access my programs !

I also try to disable all "startup program" and use "the minium startup
load". After waiting a while I was able to click on my quicklaunch icon but
it was sooooo slooooow !

I suspect that a program or library (crcdisk ?) is cycling.

Now, I shutdown my pc, restart this morning AND .... windows is telling me
that he block access as I must activate Windows !!! GASP!
My windows is activated for months and is a clean version !!! What's that
hell !!

Still looking for HEEEEELLLPPPP and advice

Thanks to all

Pierre
