Why am I suddenly unable to assess Properties to change preferences by right-clicking my desktop, nor does Display in Control Panel works. Both will not open.

Check with you network administrator and see if he has set profiles up on you machine. This what it sounds like to me.

Hi. Thanks for responding to my post. It has been a constant problem until I decided to reload my display drivers for a new video card recently installed. For some wierd reason, the driver shows up in Device Manager, so I had not thought to double-check. It got to a point when my computer would only boot into Safe Mode. After removing the display driver, I reloaded the updated video card drivers. Happily, the problem is solved except for one new irritation which I don't know if is related to the display. Thanks and have a good evening.
