Windows XP Major Problem by mwe99 on 09-06-2005 at 09:52 PM

Okay I shut my computer off before and turned it back on.... logged on and it wouldnt load my desktop icons... it wouldn't load any program or anything:

Windows XP Home

Check your system startup for something that isn't usually there. There might be something which is taking ages to load so its not loading the other programs and icons.

Reboot the computer tapping F8 and choose Safe Mode.

Then log into your account and check the startup. Your user account might be corrupted. You can also try a system restore.
