EXPLORER.EXE has stopped working

Why do I get these crashes?

DreamScene and DeskScapes used to work. I decided that I wanted to use static backgrounds for a while, and when I looked for some new Dreams I saw that an update was available to DS, 1.0.2 (I had 1.0.1). I installed 1.0.2 and now every time I try to load a Dream or video file from the Personalize control panel, Explorer.exe comes down on my head. I tried four different Dreams and two different videos (Microsoft defaults). Same result. Crash.

You may need to reinstall DreamScenes and/or get a different video driver. I don't suppose you have any dynamic dreams with which you can test? Any video rendering of dreams is handled by DreamScenes, so if anything is broken app-wise, it would be that.

I do not have any Dynamic Dreams right now, I thought all dynamic dreams were pay-only...

I run the latest Catalyst Mobility drivers.
