Hi, I had the problem that when I booted the computer I had a page fault explore.exe error and only got the blue screen. Same in safe mode. I restored an old registry file, and now explorer launches, but there is a new problem When I click the start button nothing happens.

Please help. When I select the details view in Windows Explorer (or any window for that matter), the screen goes blank. All other file views work except for details.
