"Send To" menu causes system crash

Hi Everybody,

When my cursor touches the 'send to' menu, after I've right clicked a
icon, it will often cause a system crash with my WinXP Pro SP2 OS. These
crashes are hard, and I sometimes have to turn off my computer to clear the
crash.And Windows will run a Chkdsc test before restarting.
This is probably caused by about 6-partition entries, from my external hard
drive, being in the "send to " menu, possibly "overloading" the "send to"
option.
I don't know how to remove the external HD partition options from the "send
to" menu. If I go to the "Documents and Settings " "Send To" folders , the
external HD partition options are not shown in these folders. I suspect that
a Windows Explorer setting will have to be tweaked to solve this problem.
But which one ?
Feedback will be appreciated.
