Well, First i'd like to say that it's major because of the problem, but not major since i can access everything i usually can.
At 14:57 GMT today explorer.exe encountered an error and simply froze. This failed me accessing anything using explorer so i thought it was just a basic crash and went into the task manager to end the process and restart it. Upon restarting explorer.exe it will run it and then something will close it and the taskbar flickers during its few miliseconds of runtime.
After looking in the system logs there was a module error with user32.dll that caused it to crash.
I cannot start windows in safe mode since it will just not allow me (damn multiboot). System restore is not an option since i don't have a restore point set (i think) and i don't know/can't find the exe to run it. I've tried replacing user32.dll with a friends and that didn't work. I'm out of ideas.
Er, help?

Sounds like your Win32 subsystem is pretty badly mangled. You may have to restore user32.dll from your Windows CD.
