Default Explorer.exe

I have a Compaq Presario 7360 with Windows 98 Second Edition.
One day I booted up the computer as normal, the password screen came
up and I entered the password. An error message occured after entry
and it looked like this:

Explorer caused an invalid page fault in module Explorer.exe at
0167:00401f31.
Registers:
EAX=00000000 CS=0167 EIP=00401f31

EDX=0080ff2c ES=016f EDI=00000000 GS=0000
Bytes at CS:EIP:

Now this is the only thing that pops up after I log in my username and
password.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you start in Safe Mode, or does the same error occur?

-Start the computer and hold down the CTRL key till the Windows 98 Startup menu
(boot menu) appears.
OR
- Repeatedly tap the F8 key after the memory count to bring up the boot menu.
-Use the arrow keys to select "Safe Mode" and press Enter.


If Safe Mode causes the same error, try restoring the Registry from a backup dated
just prior to when the problem began:

-Start the computer and hold down the CTRL key till the Windows 98 Startup menu
(boot menu) appears.
OR
- Repeatedly tap the F8 key after the memory count to bring up the boot menu.
-Use the arrow keys to select "Command Prompt Only" and press Enter.
-Type the following and press Enter after each line:
smartdrv
scanreg /restore
Follow the prompts and select most recent rb###.cab file dated prior to the problem.

The backup files will be listed in rb###.cab format, and dated. The ###'s in the
file names won't be in date order. Don't use the one named rbbad.cab. Don't
restore a backup dated more than a couple of weeks old.


I noticed that you are posting through WindowsForumz.com. Do you realise that they
are simply sending your posts to the Microsoft newsgroups, and you are unnecessarily
using a middleman?
