Explorer crashing when selecting mpeg
Posted by BG on March 6th, 2004


Got a weird problem, I have a mpeg file that I wanted to move but as soon as
I click on it I get a program error saying explorer.exe has generated errors
and will be closed by Windows.

In the Dr Watson log it says;
Application exception occurred:
App: explorer.exe (pid=1008)
When: 3/6/2004 @ 19:05:04.231
Exception number: c0000005 (access violation)

Then further down under the 'Raw Stack Dump' heading it has;
function: <nosymbols>
FAULT ->1c405e78 8b08 mov ecx,[eax]
ds:00000000=????????

It won't play in WMP9 either just crashes that as well!!

Anbody got any ideas what is going on????

TIA
