Explorer Problem

When trying to access the C: drive from MyComputer it crashes and becomes none responsive. The Machine boots and all applications run fine, but when trying to access the c: drive manually it becomes non responsive each time.

This is a windows XP SP2 machine.

Any ideas or advice would be appreicated.

 

What I would do, is do a system restore to back about a week or so or prior to when this problem did not occur. If this fails, I would reinstall XP. Someone else might have a better solution but that is what I would do.

Are there any error messages displayed?

 

Thanks, but was hoping there would be something else that could be done. Thats the last resort.

Restore points aren't helpful on this case as it's been like this for a long time.

 

Have you defraged c: drive ever?

 

yes drive has been defragged and chkdsk has been run.
