Blue Screen, now Computer is messed up

[Guest]

Out of no where, my computer just shuts off, so I turn it back on and a blue
screen appears. It says that it had to shut down windows so that it doesnt
cause any problems.

So i restart my computer and then when i go to log in, my normal log in
screen doesnt appear. It shows a box that says Account Name, and password.
Usually its the normal log in screen with the pictures to click on to get
into an account. So I "log in", and next thing I notice is the icons on the
desktop have a wierd color to them.

Then I notice there is a grey bar covering my taskbar and Start button. I
cant click the start button at all. And when I click the Windows button on my
keyboard, it pops up the start menu but it doesnt have any icons beside the
names. It sort of looks like im in safe mode, but im not.

And when I right click on My computer, it doesnt show the General, Computer
Name, or Automatic Updates tabs. When I click on the Remote tab, it doesnt
show anything and then the tab just disappears.

Also when I try starting a program like World of Warcraft, or Ventrillo it
says "The application has failed to start becuase the application
configuration in incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this
problem."

If any of you guys can solve this problem, I would be in your debt.

Try restarting as an Administrator in Safe Mode, and create a new user
account. Then log into that new account in regular mode. If this
resolves the problem, your old account is corrupted and you should back up
your data and shift it to the new account.
