    Today i turned on my PC and found alot of stuff different.

    Sound drivers totally deleted
    Start menu all changed and different colours
    My home page changed in firefox
    Windows are being weird when minimized/maximized

    Have only been looking for like 5 mins

    Did a system scan and i have no viruses what so ever. Im the only one with access to my PC

    Specs ~ XP SP3, Intel Quad core, 9500GS , 3 GIG of DDR Ram

    Never seen something like this happen before

    Anyone got any idea what might have caused it?

    go to your C drive \documents and settings

    and see if there's a 2nd directory with the your login name. sometimes your profile corrupts and it creates a new one.

    it would explain the different colours and things but not why the sound drivers have gone.

    Just found a win32 system process error hidden underneath the taskbar

    Reboot fixed the problems
