Dodgey System Restore

So I got this out-of-the-blue BSOD, and it happened twice after, before I had chance to fully log on.
Then it stopped.
I took the opportunity to system restore to the last time, and all is fine again, apart from my desktop icons (except the folders, an .exe file and computer/recycle bin), which all have that white piece of paper with the folded corner over the pictures...
Oh I can attach things, cool, it's in the paint document.

Thanks a lot guys.

When you double click the icons do they open the program if not right click then properties you need to change the target location where the exe or files are located on your computer.

Nope, they work fine, everything works dandy, it's just been over-lapped for some reason...

Have you tried changing the icon to something different or the same icon.

Yeah, and new icons added to the desktop immediately become the same

Try this looks like the shortcut overlay is messed up.

Hey thanks, It's 5 am, I'll let you know the results tomorrow!

Let us know if its fixed.

Hey there, it has worked...perfectly. Thanks a lot for succh a swift fix!

You can answer this too if you want; I change my resolution to 1280x800 (as thhat is my laptop size), yet if I log off and on again, it will reset to 1440x900 (i've had it on this for a while, but want to change back).

anyway, thanks again for fixing the issue that matters!
