<lomex327> helped me in the chat room.. thought id put the answer in just in case ne 1 else has the same problem, the problem was that my computer had been set to try and display 2 monitors, and i only have 1 lol :)...
the solution right click on desktop.
go to "screen resolution"
find "multiple displays" drop down menu
change to "show desktop only on 1"
that fixed it, but all the folders i managed to drag on to my screen as b4 mentioned were now gone!!1 "lomex327" suggested pressin the windows key+p and clicking the "computer only" box wich bought it all back to normal :) thanks for the awesome site and all the help guys much apreciated. peace.
