Try using DOS to get at the directory and files

Chkdsk the drives

Could be that there is some corruption in the directory structures, or file 
entries
 (if you are lucky that is)

Subject: Software: Help??? Cannot right click a drive without windows crashing?


Hi folks

I feel I must have picked up a virus or weirdo somewhere.  I had a folder
that was part of a download called "ffc" ( I know that doesn't matter too
much but someone might recognize it) and when I Left clicked to open it I
saw the 2 files in there, for a brief second or two, then everything
disappeared except the desktop wallpaper.

When "windows" re-started all was normal except that now when I right click
on a drive letter to get properties et al windows crashes and restarts?

I have tried the "restore" route but it fails to complete (thinks malware
or virus) so I switched it off.  No go.

Then I though that last time I remember running SP2 again and it seemed to
cure it so I did but nothing changed.

Then I restored C drive (the complete image) with Ghost and it's still the
same - right click on a drive letter in windows explorer or my computer and
"crash" restart.

Short of a complete reinstall ---- Ideas?????

BTW I have reinstalled my mouse driver so it's not that....
