Helllp please!

problems, problems and more problems.

So i'm not sure why this started happening but it is quite annoying. Every time I try to access "my computer" it gives me the damn flashlight looking through folders animation- for about 3-5 minutes before giving my drive icons and such.

I've got no problem accessing the actual C and D drives- it seems the only part where it gets stuck is at 'my computer'.

If i boot in safe mode it does not do this. I've got anti-virus software running but I dont relly think thats the issue. I was messing around with skins for xp but it always seems to f*** my comp up - shoulda learned me lesson last time. Anyways it was after I had tried some different skins - which also malfunctioned - that this started happening. I think a pathway is lost or messed up or something.

Anyone got any advice? Thanks in advance.
 
Presuming this is XP, have you tried system restore back to a time before the problem started?
 
Probably not your problem, but thought I'd toss it out there anyway..

A mapped network drive where the host is unavailable can cause this too.
