I just reformatted my computer to XP SP2 like always... I do this on a yearly basic with the same disc and same code... works all the time

So as I got everything installed and moved everything from my other drive...

I notice that when I click on my other hard drives it does not go right into it, it moves my folder to a different location and opens the content to the other hard drive... I restore all the views and etc and still does this...

If i go to certain web sites, I click on a box where I can type in a login, IE shuts down on me... Got firefox does same thing...

I right click my computer and go to properties and it comes up but when I hover over it, it goes away...

Reformated comp again thinking its a bad install... still same issue...

Changed services from deafualt to some tweaks still same thing...

any suggestions? I didn't do any update...

Reformatted again and then did all the updates to sp3 and everything, still same issue...

I did a msconfig and it comes up and closes right away... anyone thinks its a OS bug?

any of you think its because I have my other hard drives attached to the one I'm reformatting thats why its acting werid? I mean this shouldn't affect it but im up for any suggestions

anyone has same issue or similiar issues?

thanks

When you first finished OS install, was it working fine? I mean before you "moved everything from my other drive". Scan the other drive for virus or try new XP install disk.

Try a different keyboard. It sounds as though you're only having troubles on input. Perhaps you've one or more stuck keys? If you don't have another keyboard, bang the one you have against a hard surface a few times, but not too hard.

He says that he can't open his browser for very long. Try a different computer to search for the problem

BTW, I know my previous post sounds like a joke. It's not. If you've got one or more stuck modifier keys (CTRL, SHIFT, ALT) etc, it can potentially modify input from both the mouse and the keyboard causing applications to do strange things.

tried different keyboard still nothing

no it does not work even after a fresh install before i moved everything
i will go ahead and remove all my other hdd and see if that is the problem

searched google and nothing came up =(

Perhaps your Windows CD is scratched/unreadable for certain files since you use it a lot. Try another CD.

Check event log for times when items close down. Also, starting to sound like a RAM issue, check that out.
