We need more information, Please look here.

For example, what Operating System and what happened before this problem (did you download/install/run anything).

What does this desktop look like? Is it only the icons are gone or is the task bar gone as well (the one that says START and has the clock)

I have the same problem here today. Three computers in our lab have the same problem as Anau mentioned. The only thing appears on the desktop in the mouse pointer which I can move around but cannot perform any task such when I right click or else nothing happen. We haven't change the operating system or install anything. We are using Window XP,  SP2

If you can get Task Manager up, start a new task explorer.exe

Try that.

The task manager is locked.. can't access to it. even I used the administrator account. Is there any other step I may take?

Yeah, what is the exact error message?

Does Win + R  work?         (Win = Windows key - next to CTRL)
