    Okay i've been having this problem for about 6 months. Whenever I try to open a folder or open control panel or something, the computer refreshes and it doesn't open it.

    I tried re-installing Windows XP but I was dumb enough to install it partitioned inside my computer

    Now today I tried getting my comcast cable internet connection working, but i couldn't install the software or anything, and the technician tried to open control panel but i told him it doesn't work, and he said oh well it's not my problem now

    Is there any way to getting explorer running back to normal?

    riiiiiiiiiight
    so why is it then I have to search for drivers all the net after installing windows, but everythng works straight away on my Mandrake?
    could it be <i>*gasps*</i> hardware support?
    and why does Mandrake recognizes my 200gb hdd without an additional patch and recognizes all the partitions while XP sees the partitions as corrupted and wants to format everything? hardware support maybe?

    ---------
    as for the porblem above -> backup -> format -> clean install windows -> security updates -> firewalls -> antivirus soft -> plug in network cable
