| Printers in Control Panel crashing My Computer I have Windows XP Home Edition. Lately, if I enter Printers and Other Hardware from the Control Panel, then click either View Installed Printers or Printers and Faxes, it crashes Windows Explorer and provides the following error message: Windows has encountered an error and needs to close. Sorry for the inconvenience. If anyone can shed some light on why this is happening, much appreciated. Debi |
