When loging in (using vista) I get the error message The application failed to start because SHDOCVW.dll was not found. Got a blank background with no start bar at the bottom and can use task manager only. Do not have a Vista CD (didn't come with the laptop) Can only run the task manager using ctrl shift + esc. Don't want to loose and programmes etc on my laptop. Can't access the folder sytem32 even uder safe mode; says 'I do not have permission'. Tried changing the setting to let me see hidden files and didnt work. When running msconfig and disabling most the applications I can log on fine.. but will get the same problem after about a week. NEED HELP REALLY BAD EXAMS COMING UP PLEASE! PLEASE HELP THANKS TO ANYONE WHO EVEN TRYS
