| See if right click on desktop > Personalize > Change desktop icons (top left of screen) helps you. Take them off the desktop and put them back on, for example.

| Try changing the "Visual Effects". Computer > Properties > Advanced System Settings and under Performace click Settings... Try "Adjust for best appearance" or "Adjust for best performance".

Thanks for all the great tips... Tried all of them... found that most of the shortcuts - icons were corrected by replacing a "corrupt theme" replaced by changing ownership.. renamed to .bak and replaced... |
Corrupt Theme |

 This I find strange might be a new bug or one never fixed.. Not until I activated did this happen.. Tried everything mentioned above finally I uninstalled the bad shortcut/icon programs. Reinstalled Vistaboot 3.1, Isobuster, Nero, Poweriso, Adware, Adwatch and all shortcuts came back...I'm sure it is something in the cache... After I replaced the "Theme" about 60% came back..If anybody else has this problem, you might try. 1. totally clean the cache then reboot.. and see if that will correct..(DOH getting old - I knew about this from XP Beta testing). |

| I would reinstall the version of Vista you are using via the "upgrade" process--i.e., run the installer from within Vista.
