Re: windows explorer problems

Are the same .mp3 and .avi files involved with both drives? If so, can you
dump the files to a CD and then remove them from your hard drive to see if
Explorer starts working correctly?

Here I am looking for your help. One of the partition disks' folder having
problems. The folder contains avi files and mp3 files formats. Whenever I
click on this folder it longer time than the other folder then I got the
following messages:


"Windows explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are
sorry for the inconvenience.

If you were in the middle of something, the information you were working
on might be lost.



Please tell Microsoft about this problem.



We have created an error report that you can send to help us improve
Windows Explorer. We will treat this report as confidential and anonymous.

Simultanously I get this following message too:





"To help protect your computer, windows has closed this program.

Name: Windows Explorer

Publisher: Microsoft Corporation"



The OS is Windows XP Pro SP 2 with the latest updates, CPU AMD Athlon 64
3500+ 1GB RAM, VDO RAM 128 and more than 50 GB free hard disk. I did anti
virus and anti spyware scan several times but found nothing. Furthermore
one of the external hard disk 40GB also having problems after I stored
some avi and mp3 files, first it the system could not recognize the disk,
and then after one day it recognized again but it says it needs format,
when I tried to format however I cannot finish the formation. I lost all
the files and unable to use the disk again.



Many hours I have been browsing the google to get some help but still I'm
not able to fix it. Please help me.



Any help is appreciated.



Regards,



Ceal
