Yes, I did load drivers with the LCD and at the time everything was
running fine (to the best of my memory). And yes, the resolution is
set to the native resolution of the LCD display and the refresh rate
is 60Hz.

Since you posted, I have done some more researching. I downloaded a
tool called ShellExView. I started by disabling all the non-Microsoft
Shell Extensions listed in ShellExView. That made the symptoms go
away and returned my right-click behavior so there was no crash of
Explorer. I then enabled them one by one until I found the culprit.

Intel Graphics Shell Extension (igfxpph.dll) 3.0.0.4396

I'm leaving it disabled for the moment, but I might eventually try
reinstalling the graphics drivers (along the lines of what you
recommended) since that might let me have the Display Adaptor
extensions, but without the crashing. Either way, I have a solution.

Thanks for your help; and for others with this problem, try
ShellExView.
