Hi,

I have a used 2005 or so computer which I use to play games, transfer music, etc. on (no internet though).

This morning I tried turning it on and it showed up fine, the wallpaper at least did but no taskbar/icons. I don't know what to do!

Safe Mode does the same thing too! Any suggestions? Thanks very much.

Start up your machine, then open up task manager <ctr+alt+del> and from there go File>>New Task (...new something..) and type in explorer.exe hit enter and if it gives any errors, post them here. If it works...it may fix the problem or there is something wrong with your startup.
