If just upgraded to Vista Ulimate from XP Pro SP2 and I get a blank desktop
with a functioning mouse pointer after I logon. I'm able to get to the task
manager and and other options like switching user etc...but when I log on to
a user all I get is a blank desktop.......HELP

-Eddie
 
I can move the mouse but I can't right click and get desktop options. I can
get launch task manager...
 
How do you get to task manager?
Do you have more then one display connected/ If yes is the second one
configured for Clone or Extended desktop and which is the primary display?
 
Alt-Ctrl-Del then I get the options to Lock this computer, Switch User
etc....I only have 1 display
 
I assume that your computer is not locked. Do you have the same problem
with all the users?
What about if you boot in F8 Safe Mode?
 
It started working some how, I opened the case to make my dvd drive the
primary to re-install Vista and when I booted the machine everything came
alive...strange

Thanks for your help,
