Hi all... thanks for your tips and help. The desktop is now displaying ok. However there are still nagging problems: 1. The task bar lower left hand side icons are showing icons with no associated programs. Trying to reset the properties of the task bar is of no avail. 2. Outlook is starting ok except it is now popping a window with some jibberish (a line of small squares). Closing this takes you to a word file with change of Global template yes or no stuff!!

I have now created a new account and transferred all my files. Also another problem as cropped up in the new account which was also showing in the old account --- web addresses referenced from within an email are not accessible? Perhaps I will create a new thread.

Cheers.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried this before and it works ok i.e. the desktop is displayed except the icon for say Email Microsoft Outlook is shown as (when the system cannot determine which program an icon is associated with). Clicking on Email icon either from the start menu or the desktop produces the display \.........\outlook.pst not accesible. Acess denied. Also Favorites from IE behaves the same.

Any clue as to the problem?

Please suggest/help: The Problem: When I click on my icon which is a (limited) account it displays a message -- Note: I have replaced my logon name with the generic word "user" in the following--

c:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop not accessible
Access denied.

I have a total of three user accounts and one administrator account on my PC. Other accounts are working fine. I have been able to use my account by changing it to 'administrator' type but I do not want to continue in this mode.

Help much appreciated ..... Also another problem...... from time to time my Microsoft Outlook Inbox contents vanish?? i.e. it is empty.
