I do not belive I have found the actual fix for the problem, but I have gotten all
my icons back. I attempted to open up my resourses for the computer. Add/Remove...Control
Panel/System/Advanced/Settings/.... Turn off all but, the last and third to last.
"Use common tasks in folders" and "Use visual styles on windows and buttons".
Those two seem to keep windows XP at standard. Also goto Start/Run "msconfig" and
disable most from "Services" and "Startup". The ones needed are up to what you do
on the computer. (Graphics if you game)...now MSN and Yahoo or other chat programs,
must be shutdown within the program, they will "Load on startup" when you load them
the first time after shutting them off through "msconfig", they will load on startup.
So the problem was resourses. You ran low and your computer pulls fetures of 98/ME/XP.
It has done it since windows became an o/s.
