If you can bring up the task manager, try that and see if "explorer.exe" is running. Try stopping that process, then starting it again.

If that does not work go into your registry if you can, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Winlogon then make sure the shell file has the data "explorer.exe"
