Hi all,
XP/SP2, 1GB RAM, 3 GHz, Dell Dimension 3100.
My computer is a member of a domain with several mapped network drives and 3
internal HDDs.
Every now and then "My Computer" (the program) , or any program that tries
to read the disk drive information (eg: save as or open) just displays a
blank screen and hangs at that point. Other programs function OK when this
problem occurs. Start | Run | C: (or any other drive) will work fine when
it's in this problem state.
Done the following:-
Chkdsk on all drives
Run Adaware and Spybot for Malware
Run a complete Virus Scan using avast
Uncheck all the items under Performance Options | Visual Effects
Installed the tweak to make "My Computer" open faster.
This is just driving me mad as it happens a couple of times a day. You just
wait 1 - 3 mins. and it will display the info. that it locked up on and work
great until next time.
Any help appreciated.
TIA
Greg
