I know there have been some other threads about explorer crashing but they only seemed vaguely similar to whats happening on my computer.
I can start windows explorer just fine and use the expand and collapse plus/minus signs to navigate through the tree on the left side panel. But as soon as I goto view any of the contents of ANY folder, it crashes. (Hope that makes sense) Everything from Desktop, my hard drives, opticals and network drives; all causes it to just close explorer imediately. Nothing comes up in the main panel like it should when you left click on a folder in the tree. It also plays a sound as it closes explorer but I have all windows sounds turned off so I dont know where thats coming from. What does work however is if I go through My computer and use the single window view to browse through the folders.
Im fully up to date with XP SP2 and Norton Antivirus updates and came up clean on the full system scan. Ive also tried doing SFC /SCANNOW and that didnt come up with anything.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
