mydocuments,etc..) the screen just blinks and refreshes
itself. In the event viewer there is an error 1002

hi roger,

Thanks for the reply. But i could find a solution for this
problem. The actual error is when ever you open something
like windows explorer or internet explorer etc.. the
screen refreshes itself. When i checked the event viewer
it noted error 1002 , shell restarted explorer.exe had to
restart.

the solution for this is go to the registry
HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\bro
wser helper objects. In there you will have a subkey {BCF
xxxxxxxxxx5011} just delete that key and everything is
working fine. This solution worked in windows 2000 too. In
just the past week i had 3 computers which got the same
problem. I think this solution will help all the guys here.

Thanks again
