windows xp pro sp 2 laptop boots to the wallpaper and no farther

Asked by noeinsteinI in Windows XP Operating System, Miscellaneous Hardware

This is an IBM ThinkPad R32 that i bought used so i have no system disk. It was working well enough but now boots as far as the wallpaper and the desktop and taskbar never come up. Some installed apps. would be expensive to replace. I tried safe mode and the device manager doesn't show any problems also safemode system restore didn;t help. Can this problem be fixed?Start Free Trial
