Please advise. When I want to change my wallpaper, screensaver etc I can't as
there are no screens. When I click on Display the only thing that comes up is
Display Properties. I have no idea how to restore the screens.
All help welcomed.
As I received such good advise on my last question I thought I would follow
on with another niggle. Hope this is OK.

Hi,

Are you on a work networked machine? If so, there is probably a group policy
in place that has removed access to the rest of the tabs.
