OK I've read a few people having this issue but none of the solutions have worked for me.
Issue: Blank (black) desktop upon logging in. The only things showing on the desktop is the cursor and the build info in the lower right. No icons, no taskbar.
I can launch programs via the task manager just fine. All programs seem to run fine. In safe mode, desktop and taskbar are visible.
Steps I've already taken:
- changing to standard VGA driver - no effect
- updating graphics card driver to Win 7 beta driver 0 no effect
- checking if system thinks I have two monitors - no effect
- the graphics card only has one output so I cant switch to another output
Here are specs for my rig:
-------------------------------
Windows 7 build: 7100
Motherboard:
Manufacturer : Intel - Product : 975X Bad Axe 2 - Model : D975XBX2 - Version : AAD53350-507
Video card: NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS
Any help would be appreciated!
