HELP!!!

I had tried to see if I could use one monitor for 2 computers and now I'm
unable to get back to the way it was. In display settings they showed screen
1 and 2. I had asked to few screen 2 and that did it. There are no icons,
nothing. Just background. No start either. I am however able to right
click and get to the control panel, but some places will not respond like the
one I need to get to. (Display settings) Safe mode won't even work. Can't
even get to the registry.

Boot with VGA support.

Sorry wrong terminology. When you boot tap F8 and then Enable low-resolution
video.

Paul,

F8 offers me 4 choices to make copies of startup disks.
