Win xp slow load icons start button not there

Tima1252, on Monday May 5, 2008 03:18:16 PM
Hello,
My ibm-8148-15u desktop has recently been slow loading. Some of the icons will change to picture icons while others stay in a generic format. Also, the start button will not appear either.

Then it just permantley hangs with just a color screen and no icons present.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Tim
Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 6.0

Hello,
Yes, if you format your PC, you loose every files but before, maybe you can try to make a restoration system on a prior date to your problem.

Having the similar problem last few weeks running XP pro. Also some of the blue background does not fill when using windows explorer. Computer is less than a year old. Seems to happen coming off of standby. A hard reboot fixes the problem for a short time. Local repair house thinks its a virus/spyware effecting the registry. Ran trendmicro and lavalSoft, didn't find anything except the usual bad cookies. Guess i'll wait for the blue screen death message.

Do you have Symantec installed? I've seen this happen with the latest version of symantec.

its windows and its related to windows updates etc - as a work around you need the newest drivers for you network card if you can, use drivers that all your computer to connect to your network before loading windows – be sure your not using a blacklisted edition of windows what you pay for is what you get.
