Something's wrong with my desktop i suppose?
Text below icons on my desktop have a black framework. It really makes me angry, how to get rid of it. And when my computer turns on, icons appear but the background is black, and after 5 secs, the picture background appears, and text below icons on desktop have black framework. When I click refresh black and white colours appear around my desktop icons in that moment during the refresh process and my desktop background turns black again, but only during the refresh process (less than half a second) and then, background picture appears again. Sorry for my english, but if you understand please help... I'll appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
All your saved documents disappeared and desk top item disappeared off my computer how do i find my saved documents?
You may want to try this. Right click your mouse anywhere on your desktop. Select "Arrange Icons by" and then make sure that the option to "Show Desktop Icons" is checked. If not check it and they should come back. I don't know WHY Microsoft put this option in their OS but it's there and can cause some problems.
