So, today when I turned on my computer, instead of the normal desktop, all I could see was a black screen with a moveable cursor.
Now, I've done some googling about this already. I've removed the battery and replaced it again, which had no effect.
I've also opened up task manager and found that windows explorer was missing from the list there. I went to file and ran explorer.exe as a new task. This made the desktop appear for a few seconds before disappearing again.
Is there again else that you'd suggest for me to try? Thanks for any help.
