My pc works like a charm, except in one area.
When I go to control panel and click on something to check, I get a
pop-up that Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and must close.
Sorry for the Inconvenience...
Then another pop-up from something called, Dr. Watson, saying that
encountered a problem, etc. Then the pc freezes. I go to task manager
and it shows that control panel has stopped. Once I end task, my pc is
fine again after my desktop icons refresh.
I can be on the pc for days at a time without any problems, until I go
to control panel.
I've done a disk cleanup, scanned with Ad-aware, spywareblaster,
Norton's Internet Security, and everything is clean. No viruses, etc.
This is driving me crazy.... Any thoughts?
