need help please!

Hey guys,
I have a HTC desire and my problem is that it won't let me delete my message threads! Everytime I try my screen goes white and stays like It for a while, even when I force stop, I've also tried clearing the data through the settings, it says it clears but then it comes back, and I'm not spending time deleting one at a time, now have over 3000 messages, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I assume you did a battery pull to see if that fixes the white screen issue?

Perhaps a factory reset?

+1, I would try both of those before doing anything else.
