hi
do you have quick launch icons just to the right of the start button? if so one of those is 'show desktop'. try clicking on that first to see what happens.

I tried that but nothing seems to work. It looks like I clicked on something which suddenly gave me an iconless desktop.
Dunno what to do and I can't do a re-install bc I have a ton of documents there in.
