explorer or xp error
I 've recently reinstalled XP cuz of the mass of error messages tht appear for no decent reason, & I install everything & finally get my internet connection up, I try to press explorer & one those annoying boxes appear "sorry........has to close report or not" so I'm well annoyed, I find out i can actually get on the net by going to documents or something & typing an addy there& then i discover once one window is open I can use the explorer icon to access the net again, but this happens everytime I restart. Has anyone had these problems & knows how to solve them bcuz i tryed to get rid of these errors not start them up again.

I seperated everything into catogories, music, videos, documents & saved games etc, i didnt just copy say program files & dump it all back in ( as the registry would mess up )

okey done them all & it doesn't seem to have changed anything, but the explorer seems to be random on whether it will open or not first time round ( still once one is open another will open )
any ideas? |
