Richie101 Posted January 12, 2002 Share Posted January 12, 2002 Do you mean that it does not load the programs,or is XP just hiding the icons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babis Posted January 12, 2002 Share Posted January 12, 2002 I really need more info to try to help....When did this start happening?Did you install anything?System specs...just so I have an idea...etc...as a side note: sometimes when computer is "busy thinking" and you try to restart or something.. it might tell you explorer cannot respond. Solution "wait a little" .... that's what happens on of my older systems... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donlon Posted January 12, 2002 Author Share Posted January 12, 2002 It startet for a couple of days ago.I did make sure all my programs is XP compatible before I installed them.I have a ASUS CUSL2-C MB, PIII 1000MHZ with 512 megs of Apacer RAM2 IBM 60GXP 40 GB HD, Creative SoundBlaster Live Value soundcard,Logitech Cordless Keyboard and Mouse.Explorer.exe is that my Taskbar ?? It's like Explorer.exe is "hanging" during startup and won't let other programs start up, my cursor becomes the Hourglass when I move it to my taskbar during this. I noticed that my Antivirus NOD32 apperently is the first that loads up in a succesful boot.Besides that my E-Mail client (Incredimail),AudioHQ (SoundBlaster),ITouch(Logitech keyboard) is starting up and shows Icons in my taskbar.John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
