Task Bar Disappears and CTRL-ESC will not bring up the start menu. The following worked for me. At boot up hit F-8 to bring up the boot menu select Enable VGA mode When XP re-boots the task bar should be there. This appears to be a graphic card problem and occurs when you have an onboard graphic and an added graphic card in a PCI slot.
