when windows logs in, sometimes it only shows the wallpaper, no icons, no task bar, nothing but a wallpaper, i can CTRL ALT DEL. but i cant new task explorer.exe, i have to restart, or relog windows and eventually everything appears, any help would be appreciated, ive also tried a windows restore, but still seems to be doing this.

How long have you waited to see if the rest of the desktop finally appears?
Is it reproducible? Anything that triggers it?

Can you start Task Manager from Ctrl+Alt+Del? If so, what processes are running? Are any using a lot of CPU time?

can wait for ever and nothing appears, i dont know if anything triggers it, its doing it alot more frequently now, i currently on safe mode, cause i cant get in. seems like the normal process's are running, explorer is up to, tried ending that and running a new task as explorer.exe

well i just found something interesting, restarted my PC again, found the process called daemonu.exe, i ended that and the rest if my desktop displayed, i just google searched daemonu.exe, and it says its something from Nvidia, should i reintsall my Video card drives?

Before trying to re-install, try this. open up run, and type msconfig, and hit enter. Go to the startup tab, and find daemonu.exe, and uncheck it. Apply, and restart.

I would see if there is an updated driver for your video.

i updated before this all happened i guess, but i didnt uninstall the previous drivers and run driver sweeper like i usually do, could of corrupted something,
and to darkshalie, there was no daemonu.exe in startup, but also ending process's related to nvidia restored the desktop, Ntune......exe, i closed this on the startup and problems went away, i'll do a complete driver uninstall and reinstall the drivers.
