Problems with personalization and such.

Any time that I am in the control panel, particularly the personalization
section, if I attempt to open anything a new window will appear but quickly
vanish, because of this I can't change my background, install new fonts, ect.
Does anyone have any ideas as to the problem and solution?

Re: Problems with personalization and such.

vista is passing a subliminal message to you.
"if you use me you will lose your peronality"

Look at what happened to Frank and Jupiter Jones...

they have become drones of the vistabog

Re: Problems with personalization and such.

I tried that and the window that comes up goes away within a second. Any
other options?

Re: Problems with personalization and such.

Can you attempt to do a System Restore? If that that does not work, I would
Boot off your Windows Vista Installation DVD, choose the System Recovery
Option > on the setup window, choose Repair > select your Installation > on
the list of options choose Startup Repair.
