Explorer Crashes on startup
« on: September 06, 2004, 12:04:00 AM »
Hi, I just had a question about my computer. Everytime I start it up, as soon as windows loads, i get an error message saying that explorer has crashed, even before anything on the desktop appears on the screen. So when i click close, the computer just sits there because there is nothing loaded. When I press ctrl+alt+del, there are no tasks running. So the only options i have are to cancel and let the computer sit there and do nothing, or shutdown or restart, and then it does the same thing over again everytime. I don't know if theres anything I can do about it since the computers getting pretty old, but i can't download any patches or anything like that, I mean it doesn't let me do anything at all even after explorer crashes. Thanks for helping me, I really appreciate it.

I'm using windows 98, and i can load it in safe mode, but when i do the same thing happens, it just crashes in safe mode and then doesn't let me do anything, just like it would if i weren't in safe mode.
