whenever i startup my computer, it runs into the desktop but no icons or anything show up, just the background of windows, my pointer has the little waiting thingy but it just stalls and keeps it that way, i would have to turn it off manulllay and then statup up again, this problem i would say happens to me once every 5 startups??
