Sorry just explore.exe

[monica22]

The error is Explore.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows. It gives me Close and Details. When I click close my wallpaper and my pointer is showing but no icons, start menu, taskbar, nothing.

[dsenette]

what about details

[monica22]

When I click on details it says: Explorer caused an invalid page fault in module explorer.exe at 0167:00401f31.

[dsenette]

ok.....ive got something to try
can you open the start menu? if so do start > run > scanreg.exe /r

[monica22]

There is no start menu and I cannot hit the windows button on the keyboard. I have booted to the 98 bootdisk and tried to do a restore and it says bad command or file name. I have ran scandisk and cannot find any problems.

[dsenette]

ok well boot with the boot disk then issue that same command when you get to a prompt

[monica22]

I cannot do it from the c: directory. Is there a certain directory I need to be in?

[dsenette]

what do you mean you can't do it from the c:directory? does it give you an error?

[monica22]

When I am at c:\>scanreg.exe /r it says bad command or file name

[dsenette]

try scanreg.exe /fix

[monica22]

Still says bad command or file name

[dsenette]

sorry for all the attempts on this one...just trying everything..

try puting in your 98 cd...botting with the floppy and attempt to find that file on the cd and run it from there.
