Computer going back to default


Question Posted Saturday August 6 2005, 1:16 pm

This just started happening last night... When I restart my computer all my desktop settings go back to default. I have the default background and all the icons are back like they were when I first bought the computer. I still have AIM but every time I restart my computer everything gets deleted from it. (All the screen names at the sign on. All my favorites in my internet explorer are all there but now they're all in alphabetical order... Does anyone know what's going on or anyway I can stop this? Thanks.

First, check your computer for virus's, and scan the entire C-drive, yes it take a while, but it will make sure there's nothing eatting your computer! lol... Sry, I'm back, anyway, then going under Display, set all your compture settings the way you want, and make sure they've been saved... Afterwards, try restarting your comp, if that doesn't work, you might need someone to look at it for you, like a tech. Sry this was so long, Hope this helped... Jack

I really have no clue what could be wrong with it. Maybe you should talk to your parent(s) about this problem that is happening. You could have a virus or something. You might want to try and get a computer guy to come in and see what is wrong. Or you could talk to someone you know that knows a lot about computers and could help you out with this computer problem.
