[QUOTE="Jack, post: 27570, member: 1"] The PC had that same specs right?Where did you copy explorer.exe (path) ?Is explorer.exe loading in Safe Mode? 1.It is always recommended that you take a backup of the Registry before editing any of the values because any improper editing can cause strange behaviour and at worst could even corrupt your operating system completely, requiring you to re-install Windows. We encourage you to try out the registry changes, but only if you know what you are doing and if you do it with care. Go to the following in the registry editor: [b]HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon[/b]. In Winlogon, on the right side, there should be a value called "[i]Shell[/i]". Double click this value. Make sure only 'Explorer.exe' is the value of Shell, if anything else is there , simply delete it and leave 'Explorer.exe' . Restart the computer for the changes to take effect.Once that's done start Taskmanager and under the Processes tab, check if the explorer.exe process is running , if it's not, then cilck File-> New Task, type explorer.exe and click OK. 2.Launch the Autoruns Sysinternals tool. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902 On the Options menu select Hide Microsoft and Windows entries. On the File menu click Refresh (or just hit F5). Look at the Explorer tab for things that are loading under Explorer.exe . What's listed? [/QUOTE]
