On a computer that is running Windows Vista, you experience one or more of the following problems:

• Icons are missing from Control Panel.
• You cannot start Control Panel. When you try to start Control Panel, the screen may flash briefly, but Control Panel does not start.
• You cannot start the Welcome Center. For example, when you type welcome center in the Start Search box, and then you click Welcome Center in the Programs list, nothing happens.
• You cannot start Windows Vista games such as Chess or Minesweeper. When you try to start the games, nothing happens.

These problems may occur intermittently.
