Ever seen this problem before in XP open a drive or folder it crashes and goes back again.

[Ridge Walker]

Application popup : Explorer.exe - Application Error: The Instruction
at 0x02900bd8 reference memory at 0x000000. The Memory couold not be
written and it is exasperating as I try to move some word docs, excel
spreadsheets would just close again. Dr Watson was also in error as
well

Scenario: Open the folder it crashes but do not freeze it sends the
error to Microsoft and then when I try to open the drive --> then the
folder it happens again. Strangely, other folders in the same drive
just does not happen that way. Only the folder. What can I do?? Using
XP SP2, every single component is new. Tried everything. XP was
installed just about 2 weeks ago and had all the updates installed as
well and patches from MS site. Was working fine until just recently.

memory at 0x019d0010. Tried file search, but nothing shows.

ixplore.exe may indicate a virus infection. Maybe it's time for some
antivirus scans.

Except you mis-spelled "defective" as "generic".

Nothing wrong with generic RAM if there's nothing wrong with it. Any
RAM can be defective, not matter how glossily-branded it is, and it is
defective RAM that suuucks.

This makes the fifth post I've read today on this issue. I have the same
issue and do not have generic ram.

Five posts and no resolution.

Any RAM can be defective, no matter who makes it. That's why "good"
brands say "we offer a longer warranty period" rather than "who needs
a steenkin warranty; our stuff is never defective!"

Five posts in what thread, in what ngs?
Specifically, what is the "issue" you refer to?
If RAM = bad, resolution = replace RAM and re-test to verify.
