Happy skipping along with my new 3.2 gig intel at work all of a sudden after booting up I get some icons twice and other icons I destroyed show back up? What the hec is going on?

Also my IE favorites to like the new boards here and elsewhere keeps defaulting to an old, old set of links for IE?

I tried to port a copy of my desktop over and delete the old one and then do a warm boot and also a cold boot and neither one will take.

Any help is very welcome, my Boss is gone and we are not allowed to call Customer Service from who we bought it from without Her approval, weird system huh? Shakes head....

    Sorry for the hassles, I worked off and on friday afternoon and then this morning re-edited my favorites in a separate folder and then pasted them over IE favorites, cold shut down and rebooted and it Voila! it held. Also did the same thing with my desktop and then ran msconfig from the command prompt and selected load all drivers Ugh1 and it appears to be holding!

    If it's XP you can try going to run and typing "sfc /scannow" that seems to fix strange IE issues. SFC stands for System File Checker.
