I am having a problen with Windows Explore. When I point to a drive and Right Click, Explore lock up.
I go into Windows Task Manager and it shows Explore.exe Not Responding. The same results is achieved by first Left Clicking on a device and then clicking on File in the menu.
Obviously there is some sort of corruption of a specific modure in explore.exe. Can only the Windows Explore.exe be reinstalled, or do I have to reinstall Windows XT?
I need to be able to format CD's and 3.5 floppies and I can't. The floppies I can do at the command prompt, but not the CD's. I'm using an IOMEGA 16x10x40 CD-RW.
