"My Computer" flashlight searching

[Preacher man]

I am, now, getting the "flashlight search" whenever I click on "my computer" in Explorer. The search eventually locates all the computer devices and shows them. However, if I click out and leave "my computer", go to the desktop and then re-click on "my co
mputer" I get the flashlight again. What's going on?

Hi,

Try this: Start/run msconfig, go to the services tab and uncheck the line
loading Windows Image Acquisition. Click apply/ok and reboot, see if this
helps.
