How can I change my icons in my start menu? e.g. the control panel icon
I used a theme that changed that icon and I can't change it back.
 
I've done all that and nothing changes.my control panel and my printers and
faxes icons are the old windows style folders. I know it's not a seriouw
problem but I can't understand why I can't change them!

Okay, did you uninstall this Theme which you download from somewhere or
still on your desktop?.
Try to apply another theme for XP, by Right click on the Desktop and select
properties.
On the Display properties click on Theme and apply a theme and see if it
will make you able to change the Control panel.
Or you can try System Restore before applying this troublesome theme.

Okay, could you check these settings for me please:
Right click Start Button and select Properties, then under start Menu Tab
look for these two Radio Check:

( ) Start Menu


( ) Classic Start Menu

If the classic checked uncheck and check the Start Menu and click Apply
then OK.

Then Right click on the Desktop and select properties.
On the display properties under Theme Tab what them selected?.

No, You are only option is to perform a clean Install, but do you have one
of these software change the Style of Windows or a Guard software prevent
changes happen to your system?.
