When I boot up my computer, it gets past the login but
stops at a blank blue screen. If I hit ctrl-alt-del, I
get the task manager. I tried starting a new explorer
task and ending the first one and it goes right to my
desktop and everything is fine, but I have to do that
every time I start the comp. Any ideas?

TIA

Scott
 
Check that explorer.exe is the default shell to start. Look at the Reg_Sz
string value of;
"Shell"="Explorer.exe"
found at
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Else these may help you.
