[†Gladiator†]

my (My Computer) folder no longer has the default display style where it's separated into drives, and folders for my documents. it changed suddenly for no reason. so i tried to do display properties, all of the tabs work except for the desktop tab, when i press on it, the system hangs and and when i check the task manger it says that rundll32.exe is taking. 50%process power and it can not display the desktop tab. It's not a spyware or virus issue. it's my standalone system...
help plz

Click Start then Run...type sfc /scannow (Note the space between sfc and /) and press "Enter". You will be asked for your installation cd, so have it handy. Wait for the scan to finish (this might take up to an hour). When it's finished, click Start then Run...type chkdsk /r (Again...note the space) and reboot when prompted (type Y and press Enter). This will run on boot-up so restart will take a while...be patient.

did that and didn't seem to work
i just want to restore "my computer" folder to the way it use to look with the devices, drives, folders subcatergories inside the window. now it's just a bunch of icons arranged like a normal folder. no drives, subcatergories or devices.
attached is what my "my computer folder" looks like now.

What happens when you click "View" in the toolbar and select "Tiles"?
