Windows Explorer hangs after login, works in safe mode.
Hey guys. I am just stumped with this one. I was having issues a long while ago, where seemingly randomly, my computer would stall, continuously trying to load Windows Explorer or some other program. If I was watching a movie or using some other program, that program would run just fine until the end, but then would freeze, and become unresponsive. I have had some trouble with my graphics card when it isn't updated to its newest release, however this doesn't seem to be the case now.
I'm not sure if I am having a driver issue, hardware issue or something else. However now, I am not able to boot normally. It will either hang at the Windows starting screen, or most often will load all of my startup programs and the like, appear to be fine for about 15 seconds (I can use some programs, and sometimes navigate with explorer) but then will eventually hang, and say that windows explorer has become unresponsive. Cursor still moves, yet nothing will launch, including system processes, or cancelling any programs.
Here is a grab during safe mode. Hopefully this will shed some light. I am sure that I need a good overhaul of a few things, however do not know where to begin.
