Every time I move any video files, Explorer fails on
shutdown. Likewise, if I try to thumbnail the videos in
Media Player explorer fails.

Microsoft desperately needs to find a remedy to this
situation. It is their own defective shell that is at fault.

System stats: Intel core2duo at 1.86ghz, 2gb ram, Avast AV,
Win FW, Nvidia 7900gs 256mb video, SB xfi xtreme audio, Dell
XPS410. Windows XP pro. All updates. No Media Player (MS is
junk)

I am confused...

How can you say that Microsoft needs to find a remedy for this when others,
including myself, move video files around on many different Windows XP
machines almost daily without the issues you are having? I move AVIs, MPGs,
TS, etc. files around, ranging in size of under 100MB to upwards of 8-10GB
(single files) from one location to another in Windows explorer (from one
partition to another, one drive to another, one computer to another over a
network and internal drives to external (USB and 1394 drives) drives just
about every day.

Sounds more like a problem with your particular setup. What is in your
event log?

While I have no qualms at all for blaming MS for something, your problem
seems to be a chair-keyboard interface niggle.
