I tried the scanreg/restore. It showed five dates: 01/07/08, 01/02/08, 01/01/08, 12/29/07, 12/27/07. Where the 08's came from, I don't have a clue. Same with the 12/29/07! The 12/27/07 failed. So I tried the 01/01/08. It loaded just about every thing, and was running for about a minute longer than previous startups. Then froze. I restarted and about five seconds after loading the icons it froze. Again Ctrl-Alt-Del did no good.
