Some general things to try.
See if System Restore will get you back to a restore point before your problem with Explorer.
Try Safe Mode (Do you have this problem in Safe Mode?)
Try running ChkDsk to check your drive for errors. Right click your Drive icon/ Properties/ Tools/ Error Checking.
Run the System File Checker program from the Run Box by typing.....Sfc /Scannow in it and have your XP CD handy.
HOW TO: Verify Unsigned Device Drivers in Windows XP
If they don't work you could try repairing windows itself by running it over itself. You will lose all your windows updates but your files will be untouched.
