    ok, i've got this folder containing about 16.5gigs of music

    for some reason i can no longer open said folder without it going cak cak - i click on it and the window opens but the timer stays running and the files never appear, then it crashes and task manager kicks in and closes it. this problem started a few months back.

    i can still access the music files via normal computer file search but its irritating. what could be the cause? cani fix it?

    OS is XP home

    cheers

    Give a rough idea of the folder/tree structure.
    Can you access it OK in Safe Mode?

    try searching for "thumbs.db" and deleting the one that's inside your music folder (this is just a shot in the dark tbh)
