My system won't completely boot! (icons don't appear!)
Hi! I don't know what happened but it started like 2 days ago. Now when I boot, my system stop loading the desktop when the wallpaper appear (the icons and the start menu don't). What I have to do is pressing ctrl-alt-delete and close my session and then there's a 1/2 chance it totally boots normally.

Does anyone knoes how to solve this? This is getting really annoying...

Can you get into Safemode ??


How to Start in Safemode

1. Restart your computer.
2. Before the windows logo you should gently tap the F8 key repeatedly until you are presented with a Windows XP Advanced Options menu.
3. Select the option for Safe Mode using the arrow keys.
4. Then press enter on your keyboard to boot into Safe Mode.
5. Do whatever tasks you require and when you are done reboot to boot back into normal mode..
