2.5 beta - cant select images

[whowell]

Not sure where to post this as there doesn't appear to be any forum for bugs.



I have just upgraded to blender 2.5 beta after people here kept going on about how good it was - however I have an issue that makes it unusable.

Every time I try to select an image, blender crashes.



I create a new texture

Set type as "image or movie"

go to the "image" section - Click on the "Open" button

The File viewer appears to start building and then (95% of the time) blender crashes



I'm at a complete loss as to why - Normal file navigation appears to work within blender, its when I try and search for pictures that it falls over.

My pictures folder has lots of files and folders but I can't thik that that is the problem.



Any ideas of a fix or even who to ask?



I have a Laptop with Vista if that helps!
