Running cmd as admin crashes Explorer ntdll.dll error
I'm tweaking my new PC and I need to run cmd as admin for certain purposes. However, when I try to run it as admin (by right-clicking a desktop link and choosing "Run as admin"), it crashes Explorer.exe and no prompt appears.
Here is the Event Viewer entry:
This happens even after a clean boot.explorer.exe

C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll

As a matter of fact, Explorer.exe crashes VERY often and I can't pinpoint exactly why. (Happens while just viewing files and whatnot.) But it always mentions ntdll.dll.
