I just got a new/used computer (Gateway media center).I set up my dsl with att/sbc Yahoo-I don't think this had anything to do with my problem-but after a short time of using my computer every time I would log on under any name or guest just as soon as the start menu loads it dissapears.I checked the start menu settings and the hide box is not checked.The start menu is there in safe mode.Does anyone have any sugestions?Thanks

Is it only the start menu or the tilte bar that comes with it? If it is the title bar as well it might be hidden just below the sceen or just out of sight of the sides. try moving the cursor around the edges. If that work then drag it back into position. Hope this helps.

the title bar,start button and menu,and icons,all disappear.moving the cursor around the edges dosen't find anything either.thanks

hi,when you wave your mouse where the taskbar should be does it re-appear? If so rightclick on it and select Properties then uncheck Auto-hide the Taskbar.
If that doesnt solve your issue, have a look here (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q318027)
good luck! ;D
