My icons will not come on my desktop (by 5 users)

posted by INeedHelpNow on Jul 23, 2007


When I turn on my laptop it goes all the way to my desktop but then nothing happens. I have to go to task manager to turn it off because I can't get to start to log off or shut down. I need to do school work but can't get my computer to work. i figured I could go to task manager and do something but that didn't work and it's not the battery otherwise it wouldn't come on.

I use Windows 2000 Server Professional Service Pack 4, I have the same problem, but I can't get my task manage to pull up. I press Ctrl + Alt + Delete and the window appears, but clicking on Task Manager does not do anything. How do I fix this?

When I start my computer it starts with windows but then the screen goes blank no icons appear. Do I go on to the Safe Mode before starting the Task Manager to start 'explorer.exe'

This maybe due to the "explorer.exe" process not running.
Try pressing ctrl-alt-del, to start the task manager then select the "processes" tab and click on "file".
In the "create new task" window type "explorer.exe" (without quotes) & click OK.
Your desktop icons should magically appear!
