"dead" desktop issues

[Guest]

Hi Everyone,

Lately, when I come out of hibernation, or somtimes after running
CPU/memory heavy programs I find that my desktop icons won't work (after
clicking on them) or our very slow to respond. This includes quick launch and
taskbar icons.
And it also seems as if there are layers of desktop wall paper on my
screen. Which consists of wallpaper that I used, to use, as a back ground on
my desk top.
Which still seems to be there after choosing new desktop wallpaper.
Also, when I right click on desktop properties, the properites window is
very slow to appear, and sluggish in it's response.
Does anyone have any ideas what I can do improve this problem?
Thanks!
your friend,
Larry

Also, what tasks do you do on your PC? Heavy Multimedia? And how old is your
PC?

Try to do Disk Cleanup and Defragmenter. Make sure that you do Cleanup
before Defragmenter. Hopefully that should fix it.
