Eventually, as it was a RAR archive, it was enough to convert it to ZIP and put it back. However, when the original file appeared on another NTFS volume, the behaviour was a bit different. I pressed F3 in Far for that file and got "Invalid handle" error. Then I couldn't open any other file in that directory (only these have been tried) -- the same error. At some point there was immediate reset when accessing that file, and since then this behaviour was permanent. Even deleting that file was possible only in Safe Mode. Another computer (XP Home instead of Pro) has no problems with that file. Of course, I kept the file for any experiments in the future :) Written in response to: re: Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (saimhe: Wednesday, March 9, 2005 at 8:21 am) Responses to this message: re: Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (scriz: Thursday, April 28, 2005 at 3:09 am) All messages in this thread [show all] Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (Scott Coxon: Mon, Jun 23, 2003, 8:15 pm) re: Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (Ricer46: Mon, Jun 23, 2003, 9:00 pm) re: Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (Belgawizz: Tue, Aug 19, 2003, 5:58 am) re: Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (TrappeD: Sun, Aug 24, 2003, 2:30 pm) re: Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (johngaz: Tue, Aug 7, 2007, 8:34 am) re: Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (Scoobydoo: Tue, Dec 16, 2003, 5:27 pm) re: Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (Tina Pierce: Thu, May 10, 2007, 5:40 pm) re: Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (Robo-robbie: Mon, Aug 25, 2003, 3:26 am) re: Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (James Fields: Wed, Sep 3, 2003, 8:52 am) re: Question about 'Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000' (A.
