Hello,
Try this 1
1) When you switch ON your computer, start tapping the "F8" key to get
"Windows Advanced Options"( if boot menu appears, press "Esc" key and keep
tapping the F8 key)
2) Select the option "Last Known Good Configuration".
If the problem still exists then follow step 1 once again and this time select the
option "Safe Mode". When the desktop appears, perform "System Restore".
Good Luck

Thanks jack4rall for the suggestions. Unfortunately neither worked. The icons showed in safe mode but when i did the system restore it told me it couldn't complete it :( I'm confused as to why it happen to begin with. Before we moved it was working fine. Thanks for taking your time to reply. Have a nice day :-)
