Ya i have the same problem as you. But i cant access any
program that is related to windows (media player, system
restore, microsoft word, ect.) And i dont have any sound.
I tried to reinstall windows but nothing happend. after
the process was done i rebooted and it was exactly the
same. Grrrrrr. Plus it takes like 15 minutes to start
windows and stuff. I dont have a start menu or taskbar
either. And most of my programs dont work. Basically i
have a computer that i cant use. Oh ya, and i cant click
and drag anything. AND i have to right click on a picture
or file to get it to realize that i clicked on
it............Grrrrrrr
some many things wrong and so little knowleg of how to
fix it. I really need to get my comp working so if anyone
can help thanks......
