i dont have a problem logging into the computer but when i go to any of our
desktops, immediately i start getting a msg saying that windows explorer has
stopped working and that windows is searching for a solution. then i get the
msg that windows is restarting. the explorer stops and starts continuously.

RE: windows stopping and restarting (Solution)


u have to get windows re-installed. Sorry but that is the only solution. as
this happened to me and i sent the computer to a computer clinic and the
technician installed windows again for me and done a restore of the system so
i would'nt lose any data.

if u have have got infected with spyware/virus it has damaged the windows
directory. causing explorer.exe to keep restarting. thats what happened to
my computer
