Printers folder closes by itself

Whenever I open my printers folder and try to right click on any of my printers to get properties or anything else it closes the folder. If I double click on a printer the printer opens but when I try to access the properties I get an exception error that states

"Function address 0x77c011c7 caused a protection fault. (exception code 0xc0000005) Some or all paoperty page(s) may not be displayed"

This happens for all printers. Anyone seen this??

Thanks
GeneC

Sorry forgot to say which OS an all that stuff. OS is XP pro, in a dual boot system with 98. System uses fat32 and there is a GIG of ram. The printers I have installed are an epson777, HP laserjet 5L, and a print to fax driver. If there is a roundabout way of uninstalling all printers and starting over that would be great.

Try using add/remove progs and hardware, then arm yourself with the latest drivers and re-install the printers 1 at a time, making sure that all is well after each install.
