I'm using XP Home SP 1.
For a while now, when I open an explorer window (either by pressing
WinKey + E or double-clicking My Computer), the resulting window
crashes explorer within minutes to seconds (usually about 20 seconds)
of opening it. By crash, I mean the window and the taskbar disappear.
The taskbar returns a few seconds later; the tasktray icons repopulate
gradually, and some of them never return.
This happens only when I'm looking at the contents of HD, CD,
removable disk, etc.
Reinstalling XP is not an option, so I'd appreciate any ideas.
Thanks!
