Missing Icons on Desktop

I have a machine running XP home that has stopped showing the icons on the
desktop. If I look in Windows Explorer, the programs/shortcuts I want are
all under Desktop, and, if I try to copy a file from there to the desktop
screen, I'm told it can't do it because the source and destination are the
same. Show Display doesn't affect this problem at all.

Thanks in advance,

Bill
