I've been receiving an error that says problem opening windows temporary
folder. the number on the bottom of the message is -34. I have sp2 installed
on WinXP Home Edition, with a cable connection(road runner). I have to hit
alt/control/del to unfreeze the screen after I close the window in order to
keep working. I checked with my anti-virus provider to make sure it wasn't a
virus(it isn't). How can I keep this error from occurring, and what causes it
to happen in the first place. If anyone has any advice or solutions, I'd
greatly appreciate it. I have a HP Pavillion 760n computer, with a Pentium 4
processor, and it's approx. two and 1/2 yrs. old. Thank you.
