This problem first started a few days ago, and has been happening more and
more frequently, seemingly at random. Explorer will freeze while I'm opening
or navigating through an Explorer window, or while trying to open a picture
in preview. Once the Explorer window freezes, all I can do is turn the
computer off, when I attempt to shut down nothing happens. All other
currrently running programs are unaffected. After the first freeze I ran
virus and spyware scans and defragged the HD, but nothing seems to work. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
System specs:
HP Pavilion AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600
Windows XP Media Center SP2
2gb RAM
300gb HD
nVidia GeForce 7300 LE 256mb
system is barely a year old
