I installed Internet Explorer 7 on my computer and now Windows will not boot. It will take me to my desktop and I can use the Task Manager to get to my programs, but my desktop and start menue will not load. When it first tries to open Windows it tells me there is an error and asks me if I want to send and error report. How can I get Windows working again properly?

I can't click the start menue because it no longer exists. I have no icons and no start menue, just the background picture of my desktop and the task manager. The only way I can navigate on my PC is through the task manager's Run New Task feature.

Even in Safe Mode the same error occures. It says "Windows Explorer encountered a problem and had to close." It takes away the Start Menue and all my icons. I just need to know how to get to the Control Panel using the Task Manager.

I already use Mozilla I don't need to know about it, I like Mozilla but was just updating my Internet Explorer because some things won't run on Mozilla.

Uninstall IE7 and go back to 6.
To uninstall Internet Explorer 7 to return to Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP
Click "Start," and then click "Control Panel."
Click "Add or Remove Programs."
Check "Show Updates" at the top of the dialog box.
Scroll down the list and highlight the version of Internet Explorer 7 that you are running, and then click "Change/Remove."
Uninstall that,restart your PC and you are on IE6

Try using the repair feature of Windows XP. It is going to replace the system files that have been corrupted with fresh ones.
If you know how to do an Installation, then do it and choose the repair option when asked. it will restore your windows operating system withoutn you loosing any of your files or any of the programs that were installed on the machine.
I once experience that problem and that was what i did.
If you do not want alternatives like Mozilla then stick to IE 6. It is safer than IE 7.
Hope it helps...

Log on in safe mode (during startup press F8) and choose Safe Mode. Once logged in, you should be able to Go to Start, Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, and find Internet Explorer 7 in the list. Remove it, and reinstall only version 6.

The problem is Windows. Get rid of Windows. There is a FREE operating system that won't crash all the time, it's called Linux. You can download CentOS Linux for free!!!

If you can get to where you can uninstall it, do it. When the IT people at my job loaded it on my work computer, it totally killed my computer. It kept rebooting over and over by itself and wouldn't stop. They had to totally wipe my computer and load everything on again.
