The screen is blank after booting up. No icons, no start, cannot right
click. I can ctrl, atl, delete but it doesn't give me the option of "new task". Only end task, shutdown & cancel. Unfortunately my boyfriend cannot find any disk that came with computer. Help! |

Only end task, shutdown & cancel. Unfortunately my boyfriend cannot find any disk that came with computer. Help! Best advice I can give would be to start over with XP or at least W2K. If the pc is old enough to have came with win ME you might consider a new pc altogether. |

Have you tried starting in Safe Mode?
How to boot into Safe Mode? - The 'Official' MS method is holding down or 'stabbing at' the Ctrl OR the F8 keys, BUT you do need to do this IMMEDIATELY after you power up your PC and keep 'stabbing' at them until the WinMe splash screen shows. You could also try the same, but using the Shift key instead. Come back and let us know how you get on then someone can advise further. Mart "ste" wrote in message ...
