Hi all

I have a small home LAN setup... 2 XP Home and 2 Win98se systems.

Most of the time there's no problem but, a couple of times, one of the XP
Home systems crashes when I go to MY NETWORK PLACES and click on VIEW
WORKGROUP COMPUTERS or I try to access one of the others PC's resources...
problem is NOT confined to any specific resource... it will work later on
(easier if I reboot).

System wants to send an Error Report to M$... saying Explorer.exe has
crapped out. Once it dies, I can still do anything else on that PC... even
going to a different PC and connecting back to transfer data to/from.

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!!
Steve
 
Hi again... same problem but more info now

Today I installed a second printer and tried to open Control Panel /
Printers and Faxes... it got as far as showing both printers but, before I
could "share" the new printer, system crashed in identical fashion to My
Network Places. Didn't happen before when there was only one printer...
which was shared.

So now I have two processes that crash when I try to open... sure could use
some ideas/help!?

Thanks again,
Steve
