Can't initiate Control Panel

[Tom]

My two month old computer won't initiate Control Panel
| from any possible buttons. The screen flashes briefly
and
| then returns to the configuration it had at the start.
| This is true if I sequence Start>Control Panel or My
| Computer>Control Panel, etc. This glitch began after I
had
| intalled some older software that I had used on my
| previous computer. I have tried everything my limited
| imagination can concoct but to no avail. Any help will
be
| deeply appreciated.
