Next pointless suggestion!

Try going to the 'Folder Options > General' as suggested above but this time try 'Reset Defaults' then restart the computer, go back and choose the settings you want.

Worth a try.

As you say you have already confirmed 'Open each folder in the same window' it may be a problem with the part of the windows registry that handles the 'Open' command for Windows Explorer...
