i was wondering if anyone can tell me if my problem is either a vista mess up or a virus/trojen. When i start up my comp, after everything has loaded my comp is fine. 3 to 5 mins later it acts like a huge file is being loaded or something the disk drives fire up pretty fast, and then all my desktop icons and start bar dissapear. Is there a way to fix this
