Hi Guys! My computer is running fine but earlier I wanted to use my video graphic card(All in Wonder Pro 128) as a 2nd monitor.I was able to do this, but noticed in the process, I lost all my icons on my desktop.I see the words but not the icons that appear above.Can you help please? Thanks so much!I am running Win98se.

have you tried all the settings there lisa i mean all the resolutions your card can take

Hi Bart.Yes I have tried them all.I now noticed too that when I click on MY computer and double click to open my C dive, it shows a webpage.I tried to change that but it keeps going back to it.

CONTROL YOUR DESKTOP ICONS Folks I have taken this from the November 5, 2002 issue of PC Magazine It works in Win 98, ME, 2K & XP When you temporarily change your desktop to a lower resolution----while using Safe mode, for example----Windows can wreak havoc with your careful positioning of desktop icons. A free download, available at www.pcnineoneone.com/tweaks/layout.zip, lets you save and later restore your icon layout. Download Layout.zip and unzip it to extract two files; Layout.dll and Layout.reg. Move Layout.dll to the Windows\System32 folder. Double-click on Layout.reg to add it to the Resistry. If you now right-click on almost any of the standard desk-top icons, My Computer, Recycle Bin, etc. you'll see two new items: Save Desktop Icon Layout and Restore Desktop Icon Layout. Choose the former whenever you change the layout; choose the latter when you need to restore it. I suggest that if the icons are as you like them now Click Save Desktop Icon Layout and you will be all set up. Be sure to remember what Save and Restore do.

also if your icons are missing and you have Tweak UI installed it has a rebuid icons function.

Thanks so much for the help guys but things got worse after my last post.I thought that if I restarted my PC that may solve everything.Wrong!I got an error and than the blue screen of death .I couldnt get passed it .I couldnt get to my desktop at all.I ended up formatting.!I guess I could have tried going into safe mode but didnt feel that would correct everything.Anyway, thanks fellas all the same for helping me.

I'm a little late but you may want to aquire the program "Roxio Go Back" for future problems of this and many other natures. Not only does it allow you to return your system in it's entirety to a time when all was well but in your case of not being able to reboot at all "Go Back works even if you can't get windows up and it is very simple and clear even to a true beginner to which group I definitely belong. I do understand your move to re-format as I have chosen that action myself in the past because I knew it would cure all software ills,presumably. These were just some thoughts I had.
