Constant Explorer.exe Errors... time to reinstall?

[Fr3@k3r]

i get constant explorer.exe errors and they are not from programs, they are from opening folders to transfering files and so forth, this a sign to reinstall? i mean i just got done re-isntalling from a fresh format about 2 months ago. :mad:

I'd try installing new drivers first...Could be a flakey IDE or SATA driver?

Otherwise, yeah, I'd reinstall.

*edit*

Have you checked your drives for errors?

nope, was thinkin about it when i posted... lol forgot to tho lol...

ok ran chkdsk and found no error when running at startup...

its less than 1% on the fragged level and i useually dont defrag till 5% and i just defragged 2 days ago..

no viri, no adware, no spyware, no trojans, no hidden dialer crap (spybot s&d, adaware, ewido, avg, cc)

so i think it might be a driver altho i doubt it, so i think i might just re-install and use the latest 410 and nvidia forceware drivers.
