be specific please.. what exactly are you seeing or not seeing?
I use 98SE. I hope I can explain this as I am about to scream trying to fix it. I had to go to safe mode to defrag and then I restarted the computer and now the wallpaper is all distorted like it is when it is on safe mode. I went back to the safe mode screen and it is set on normal start up. I have tried changing wallpapers and they are all distorted so you can't even tell what the wallpaper is. I have right clicked on the desk top and then to properties but really don't know what I am looking for. Also I can't get my desktop icons to go in a straight row. I have gone to properties for this and clicked on arrange icons and nothing changes. HELP
