XP My Computer stops responding

by bob.kohan . Updated 15 years, 3 months ago

I have XP Pro SP2 installed. When I Right Click on a drive in “My Computer” or Explorer all I get is the ‘hour glass’. When I Ctl-Alt-Del, Task Manager shows My Computer is not responding. I have check on the Microsoft News Groups for this problem and it looks like many people are experiencing the same thing. I have tried every ‘fix’ I have read about but the problem has not gone away. Sometimes Windows displays an error message about sending a report to Microsoft because there was an error detected. I have done this also. I have checked for virues, spyware, and adware and have found nothing. I know this Right Click feature used to work but I do not know when it stopped working so I can not tie it to a specific software or hardware installation.

Any ideas?

B.K.
