Laptop crashes with Blue screen of death after loading Classic Shell for Windows 8.1. First laptop newly issued by Dept Education did the same after I loaded the Classic Shell.

After your last reply I thought "No, it must be me..." So I went back and checked how I installed (again). Found the problem. When exporting a pst file from Outlook, which I have done many times, one only highlights the folder for export to select it. In the installation settings, the top ...

Yes exactly. I just tried it again - saved to file, ran as administrator, selected classic start menu only - same dialog box blocking further action.

Just tried it again (run as administrator). Only selected the Classic Start Menu (and in its drop down box I selected the Start Menu only). Same message exactly comes up. Damn!

By the way - in case it helps: This is a govt education laptop. New one. The first one I was given loaded Classic Shell ok but it kept crashing ('blue screen of death' - IRQL (?) driver not less or equal...). Might have been the Classic Shell but not sure. This laptop is a replacement which wasn't c...

When I try and install I get the following message and install fails: "Module C:\Program files.....ClassicShell\ClassicExplorer32.dll failed to register. H result-2147024890. Contact support personnel." What's wrong please and how can I install successfully?
