    Hi there
    not sure if anyone encounters the same problem - would be just good to know and to share...

    When I have Windows Explorer open and I try to copy or drag & drop a folder or a file from the window on the right (where all the details can be seen) into a folder in the left frame WE crashes and restarts.:rolleyes:

    Does anyone out there have experienced the same? is this a bug???

    Cheers
    Maztaz

    I had the same problem, reloaded windows did it all and couldn't resolve. Come to find out it was a chipset driver from Intel. Seems the Box38 old driver didn't like Vista. Downloaded the new one and no more crashes. Also found out FF video Codecs caused explorer to crash, updated to the Vista version and no more problems. If you are running something other than Intel check to make sure your drivers are up to date. Vista is very picky about any driver before 12/2007. Just my experience.:D
