    Run a Disk Check on both drives starting with external.

    If this isn't enough then run SFC -SCANNOW Command.

    Then if required Troubleshooting Explorer.exe Crashing Issues - Windows 7 Forums and if necessary
    How to replace explorer.exe in Windows 7?

    As a last resort try Repair Install
