Windows 8 Pro 64-Bit Continuous Loop Drama
I have an ASUS N53S, with up until yesterday a Windows 8 Pro VL 64-Bit.
Until yesterday I had Windows 7 and for a month now the Windows 7 Explorer has been giving me a migraine. If I open a folder or a file, it could be a text file in a folder or a video file on my desktop the Windows Explorer will crash and continuously restart itself for about 10 minutes the longest and 30 seconds the shortest.
I can use the internet as it hiccups and even type, but I am unable to click on any folders. Because I felt it might have been something that I deleted I upgraded to the Windows 8 VL Explorer, hoping that would rectify the problem. I think I just made it that much worse.
While originally the Windows Explorer would politely inform me of a restart, through a little box popup. Now it does not do this and spends far longer going through the restart process on a continuous loop. I then tried to do a system restart. Impossible to do and even my F8 button doesn't seem to work. So I can't do a system restore and I can't seem to figure out what the problem may be.
I have done a sfc/scannow several times but doesn't seem to target the issue.
Any suggestions or advice would be helpful here.
