Homescreen trouble

[risingwolfe]

My Captivate is Running Froyo and has been since its release. Today when showing my friend the new home screen options, the bit where you pinch the screen and it lets you add, move and delete home screens. after adding a few home screens my phone activated all of my apps, once i got that under control it would only switch between 3 different ones, no home screen, no nothing, and now it will do that randomly, my only choice is to hard restart. Another big issue is that when i try and change my home screens now it crashes my phone and often needs a restart after that, whether its just frozen, or has opened all my apps again.
So i am wondering has anyone had this issue, and will a factory reset fix this problem, cause that's all i can seem to do at this moment.
