Default Taskbar Freezing/Unclickable

I've recently installed Windows Vista: Ultimate, and have ran into 2 problems
that i've noticed. One problem is that my taskbar freezes after
double-clicking the speaker icon in the taskbar. I can hoover over the
speaker with my mouse, and it would be ok, but once i double-click it, then
the entire taskbar freezes, and only the Start button is accessible, as well
as my entire desktop, but quicklaunch and system tray icons are all frozen.
My second problem is when I right-click my taskbar and I click "properties"
and then remove check mark on "Show Quick Launch", and also Remove the check
marks Under Start Menu tab "Store and display a list of recently opened
files" and "Store and display a list of recently opened programs" the system
then completely freezes, and become unresponsive. A error message comes up on
my desktop showing "Windows Explorer has stopped Running". Has anyone came
across this problem, or tried to see if they have any issues, or is this just
a Vista bug unfound by Microsoft? Thanks you all for your Help!.
