G/f's computer has spazzed out on her.
When it starts up it has the message 'msls51.dll', no desktop icons and nothing showing, no toolbar etc.
cnt/alt/del is the only thing that works and she can access stuff through that.
Is there a way to access System Restore through New Task>Browse> ? ? ?
Or any other ideas??

On the Keyboard press (all at the same time) CTRL ALT Delete
When the Task Manager cones up go to File > New Task > then type in explorer.exe and click OK.

Sounds like the remnants of a trojan, you probably want to fix it up properly and review your pc security arrangements.

LDO Most people don't, they just get it working again and assume it's ok. |

No disk, but everything is backed up... It's usually the other way around! If you can get an install disk I'd just wipe it clean and start again. That way you're pretty sure it's clean. |
