Windows 7 C++ Error Wind 7

[sportjunkie11]

Hey I just installed windows 7 on my computer but I keep getting this error whenever I try to right click on my desktop:

Debug Assertion Failed!

Program: C:\Windows\explorer.exe
File: dtoxt64.c
Line: 67

Expression: ((( long )(year-1900 ) >=_BASE_YEAR) && (( long ) (yr-1900 ) ,=_MAX_YEAR64 ))

For more info on how youyr program can cause an assertiion failuer, see the Visual C++ documentation on asserts

I saw that the date on my comp was the year like 8,690 so I changed that but this message still keeps popping up. Thanks for any help!!! =)

As you've just installed it i'd say just format and reinstall it again. Maybe a bugged install the first time?

Will be quicker and easier trying to fix it.

NOooooo =(, is there any other way? I'd be fine taking a slightly longer route I really don't want to have to re-install everything.

Also if I do re install it would that mean that I have to isntall all my drivers again? It's a custom built CPU

You said ' I just installed windows 7 on my computer'

I took that to mean you had just done a fresh install of Win7 on your pc.... I take it you have had it installed a while?

What drivers? Win7 is very good at taking care of that. Should only need to worry about your GFX dervers tbh.

Just mother board as well as graphics card. And it's been maybe like a week that I have had it but I put a lot on it in that week. So there is no other solution and I just have to reinstall wind7?

Thanks for all the help so far btw =-)

There is probably a fix, I just took it that you had just installed and got that error. Now we know tis not quite like that.

Just had a quick read about, Cant find a lot to be honest.

That may be better?

Have you got C++ installed and updated?
