Windows Explorer Has Stopped Working- VISTA IS KILLING ME!

    I have browsed the web for 3 full days now trying to locate a fix to this problem. Both my laptop and my desktop do it very often- for as long as I remember, possibly since I bought it.

    I have installed all the new windows updates, ran registry scans, etc, etc and I STILL have not found a solution to this very common problem.

    If ANYONE has the magical answer PLEASE share it with the rest of us!

    Thanks

    We're not physic :) What error messages are coming up if any? When you launch IE what does it do? Does the processes come up in Task Manager? If we can understand a little bit what it's doing we can maybe find you a solution.

    Indeed. bigpapa, if you could post some information such as cpuhlp suggested, this would help us identify the problem.
