When that box pops up just click where it says...
Restore my Active Desktop. OR...
Try the System Restore which takes you back to a time when your computer was working good. Go To:
start
programs
accessories
systems tools
system restore
This process is completely reversable. And does not remove your personal files. Just go back one checkpoint at a time until your puter is working good again.

Try going into "system tools" and select "system restore" and it should allow you to restore your computer to an earlier point in time. But beware, anything you put on your computer past the selected restore point will be gone. Or you might try restarting your computer from the "start-up disk" that came with it if it had one.

Stop using that page for your active desktop! The page itself is faulty!
