Invalid page fault - Explorer caused an invalid page fault in module explorer.exe at 0167:00401f31
Q
I have this error message "Explorer caused an invalid
page fault in module explorer.exe at 0167:00401f31" wehen
start up. I have try a few method but no help. I have
another PC that run Win 98, can I erase all files in
c:/windows/system on my downed PC and copy all files from
the OK PC to the same location.
A
Here's one thing...

Invalid Page Fault in Module Explorer.exe
(296211) - After you upgrade your Juno software, or download and install
Juno Web, you receive an error message similar to the following:
Explorer.exe caused an invalid page fault in explorer.exe at 0157F:
00401F31
No, I did not install Juno but I did try the method
suggested but cannot solve.
I had hopes for that one, because it had your number: 00401F31. Well,
here is what I meant to originally post. Try this one, especially if you
also cannot boot to Safe Mode (hold F5 or CTRL as you boot to see)...
Explorer & IE are basically one & the same. Therefore, may as well try
this write-up, originally from a Gateway WEB site, which is a temporary
reversion to an earlier version of IE...
ONE THING: Do nothing more than stated here using Winfile, because, if
you move a file with it, you will lose that file's LFN (Long File Name)
in the destination.
Desktop Icons and Taskbar Are Missing
Affected Products: Software, System CDs
Affected Operating Systems: Windows® 98 , Windows® 98 SE,
Windows® Me
ISSUE: After starting Microsoft® Windows® 98 or Windows
Me, the taskbar is missing and there are no icons. When
starting Windows, the taskbar may flash on for a brief
second and then disappear. The only display visible is the
background wallpaper and the mouse cursor. Pressing
CTRL+ALT+DELETE brings up the Close Program dialog box,
but selecting End Task on the items on the list may not
have an effect. When the computer is started into Safe
mode, the issue still occurs. Running Scanreg /Restore
does not resolve the issue.
There have been several reports that the issue occurred
when restarting the computer after receiving a dialog box
that displays "Virus/spyware found. Do you wish to
remove?" or "Do you want to install Spyware Monitor?" The
dialog box only has Yes or No selections, and selecting
either can cause the issue. There is no X to close the
dialog box, however pressing CTRL+ALT+DELETE to bring up
the Close Program dialog box lists a "Remove found
spyware?" entry, which can be end tasked.
(1) Press CTRL+ALT+DELETE, & click Shut Down.
(2) After the computer has been shut down, turn on the computer. Hold
CTRL as you boot for the Startup Menu, or begin pressing the F8 key in
one-second intervals. If you complete this step successfully, the
Microsoft Windows Startup Menu is displayed. If no menu is displayed and
Windows starts up normally, repeat this step.
(3) At the Microsoft Windows Startup Menu, use the ARROW keys to select
"Command Prompt Only", and then press the ENTER key.
(4) At the command prompt, type:
EDIT C:\Windows\System.ini
Press ENTER.
(3) In the C:\Windows\SYSTEM.INI file, locate the line of text under the
[boot] section that lists "Shell=Explorer.exe". This is typically the
third line in the file.
(4) Edit the "Shell=Explorer.exe" line by deleting the "Explorer.exe"
text and replacing it with "Winfile.exe". The line should list the
following:
Shell=Winfile.exe
(5) To save the changes, press the ALT+F keys.
(6) A menu displays in the upper left corner of the screen. Press the X
key to exit.
(7) Press ENTER to save the changes and return to the command prompt.
(TAB would move you to the next button.)
( At the command prompt, restart the computer by pressing the
CTRL+ALT+DELETE keys. Once Windows has restarted, it starts into the
Windows File Manager (Winfile.exe).
(9) In the File Manager window, double-click "progra~1" in the left hand
window to open the Program Files folder.
(10) Double-click "intern~1" in the left hand window to open the
Internet Explorer folder.
(11) Double-click "setup" in the left hand window to open the Setup
folder.
(12) In the File Manager window, double-click "Setup.exe" in the right
hand window to launch Internet Explorer setup.
NOTE: If the setup folder is not available, Internet Explorer has not
been updated and a previous version of Internet Explorer cannot be
restored. You cannot use this method. Close "Winfile", shut down, & post
back, or try the URL at the very bottom of this post, which is an
over-install of IE.
(13) In the Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Tools Setup window, click
OK.
(14) In the Setup Message dialog box, click Yes to restore the previous
version of Internet Explorer.
(15) Internet Explorer setup removes components.
(16) In the Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Tools - Restart Windows
dialog box, click Restart Windows.
When the computer is restarting, hold CTRL for the Startup Menu, or
begin pressing the F8 key in one-second intervals. If you complete this
step successfully, the Microsoft Windows Startup Menu is displayed. If
no menu is displayed and Windows starts up normally, repeat this step.
(17) At the Microsoft Windows Startup Menu, use the ARROW keys to select
Command prompt only, and then press ENTER.
(1 At the command prompt, type:
EDIT C:\Windows\System.ini
Press ENTER.
(19) In the C:\Windows\SYSTEM.INI file, locate the line of text under
the [boot] section that lists "Shell=Winfile.exe". This is typically the
third line in the file.
(20) Edit the "Shell=Winfile.exe" line by deleting the "Winfile.exe"
text and replacing it with "Explorer.exe". The line should list the
following:
Shell=Explorer.exe
(21) To save the changes, press the ALT+F keys.
(22) A menu displays in the upper left corner of the screen. Press the X
key to exit.
(23) Press ENTER to save the changes and return to the command prompt.
(TAB would move you to the next button.)
(24) At the command prompt, restart the computer by pressing the
CTRL+ALT+DELETE keys
(25) Windows starts to a blue screen, but will still be
accessing the hard drive for a period of time. When
finished, Windows is on the desktop with icons, but an
older version of Internet Explorer is installed. You
should update your antivirus software, and then perform
Windows Update to install a new version of Internet
Explorer again.

Over-Install IE in Progman. This is an over-install of IE. I have a
