Windows or drive?

I'm running Windows XP SP2 and just the other day I tried to access a folder on my external hard drive and explorer.exe decided to crash on me. All of the other folders on the drive work and all the other folders on my system work without issue. It is only this file that does this. I ran scandisk and ran a/v and a/s scans and everything came up clean. Any ideas on what could be causing this or what the fix is? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It may have become corrupted. Go to the command prompt and type in "sfc /scannow" without the quotes and have your windows cd of its files available to reload the file from if it is found to be corrupted. HTH

I went to event viewer and found this in the error log. Microsoft support didn't seem to have anything about it. The exception Integer division by zero. (0xc0000094) occured in the application at location 0x0a79dd11.
