I have a very odd problem on which I can't find any information.
I got windows xp, with all fixes and service packs installed. My pc
boots normally, I get a login screen (in high resolution), when I login
it just doesn't start the explorer shell, I get a blank page. When I
check task manager, everything is running as it should, but no
explorer.exe in the list. I can run every other program without
problems (I'm typing this msg in my newsreader atm).
When I run an explorer.exe it appear only very briefly (I see the bar
at the bottom for a split second) and then stops without any notice.
Nothing in the event log either.
I tried:
- safe mode
- Last known good
- Manually remove the last hotfixes
- Running an explorer.exe from another pc which had the same fixes.
Anyone ever seen something like this or know the solution?
