Windows Explorer Error when opening movie in External HD

Hi All,
I get a "Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close" message whenever I try to open a movie in my external hard drives.

The Error Signature is "AppName: explorer.exe AppVer:6.0.2900.3156 ModName: Unknown ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00000000

I am running Windows XP SP2 on an HP Pavillion a824n 530J Pentium 4 processor I have 2 USB 2.0 in the front and 4 USB 2.0 in the back and a 1394

I am using a Maxtor 3 one-touch USB 2.0 500GB External Hard drive, a WD MyBook 500GB external and a ACOMDATA HD250UFAPE5-72 EXTERNAL HD which is the firewire drive. I have the same problem with all the drives and I have tried switching to different USB ports with same difficulty.

It happens with all movie formats Quicktime, WMV, AVI etc.

I hope I have given enough info. Any help is appreciated.

Thank You
