Everytime I login to my account on Vista, my start bar and all the icons on
my desktop disappear. I've tried to press the start button on my keyboard but
it doesn't work. When I log in, just before the bar disappears, it says
something about a driver being disabled because it screws up the way the
system runs. I have a feeling this could be it, but without any access to my
start bar, windows explorer, or my desktop icons, I have no way of knowing
for sure. Should I log into safe mode and see if I can get the start menu to
work there? If not, what should I do?

I really appreciate any help, in advance. This is beyond frustrating.

Start Vista in safe mode and see if the driver is still messing up.
