I had a similar problem, which I posted to the group -
I've cut'n'pasted correspondence - this may help (strongly suggest you look at microsoft support pages as well, it took me about 5 days of searching and trying different things until it was sorted out) 'This is strange, replying to myself - but I've fixed it, and thought people might like to know how - looked at other newsgroups re Explorer error and found posting in Registry Checker (scanreg.exe) concerning explorer problem - the reply from "glee" sorted it out - reboot using f8 (command line), edit c:\windows\system.ini to replace shell=explorer.exe with shell=progman.exe. Reboot (system starts with program manager), reinstall internet explorer (I had to do this from freebie CD which had the software on, as reinstalling from PC involved connecting to internet, which it refused to do - ? because of corrupted explorer ?), reboot using f8 again, edit c:\windows\system.ini to restore shell=explorer.exe, reboot normally - success !!!!. Thank you "glee" -----Original Message----- Upgraded PC from Windows 95 to Windows 98 (via upgrade CD).Stopped Antivrus, Firewall,etc before upgrading. upgraded OK, on final restart reported 1. Unable to initialise NAV database , clicked OK 2. Windows page fault stops loading - I have tried renaming explorer.exe to explorer.old and reboooting (didn't cure it), also copying .dll file from CD - didn't cure it (both suggested by microsoft windows support) I think it's a problem with the wrong version of explorer - how do I cure it. Thanks -----Original Message----- Upon start up I get the following error message: Explorer: This program has performed an illegal operation and will shut down.
