you transfer a file to notebook from any sorce-and try to save or save
as -nothing happens, system freezes up, you can save to the desktop if
you import a file from another location,or program and already have a
file located at the desktop.also wallpaper picture disappeared.This
all happened after downloading a 3D solitare game and removing it.

Are you the original poster, just using a different name of this post?
Since the problems occurred right after downloading and installing
software, here are two suggestions:

1. Do a System Restore to before you downloaded the game. Your data
should not be affected.
Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore
"Restore my computer to an earlier time"

2. It would be wise to make sure the computer is malware-free:
