Before i go any further i would like to explain that this is on behalf of a friend, who is a bit of a wally. Especialy when it comes to computers.
He decided to change his start button following this lifehacker tip:
http://lifehacker.com/5512481/windows-7-start-button-changer-swaps-start-button-icon
Now when he boots up his pc and logs in he is greeted by a blank screen. No taskbar icons wallpaper etc.
I was on the phone to him and he was able to get task manager up and he said there were only a few processes running, explorer.exe was not running.
I changed my start button using the exact same program and am completely stumped as to what he has done.
Anyway, he has not created a repair disk (win7 32bit) and trying system restore from his win7 disk also did not work.
Any ideas or will i have to tell him to format?
