      Graphic driver software maybe? For handling dual screens. I would die if that had to happen to me. :)

          I've got it. It's right here. Safe, for now. Small, unmarked bills, or I change the label to "tart", and send you the "S" in a brown envelope.

            1. Are you sure it's not a virus? I don't have the problem and I believe that updates just downloaded a few days back. 2. Is your Windows copy legal?

              Of course, of course... OH.. wait. I got the solution, there was an exception occuring in explorer during startup, which prevented the initialization of the start menu,

                    Or the golden rule when considering Microsoft Products. 'If in doubt, find an alternative solution.'

                            I'd say that Ctrl+Esc might be viable.

                              Yes, I know. :( Never hurts to do some preliminary searching to avoid long-term software lock-in which has always been the downside to choosing Microsoft solutions.
