    you have changed the taskbar to small icons you need to uncheck it and the search bar will come back

    If the tweaking.com is causing problems i would revert the changes back.

    Do a system restore through the Backup tools tab.

    the external drive im using was hooked up to that stupid 32 gig netbook and the ex drive used to just seem to work on that alone and i was surpised this desktop applyed the ex drive so maybe its a weird drive

    all this stuff raises my blood pressure

    So try and explain what the system is currently doing wrong.Be for tweaking.com and after tweaking.com.

    Other then the search bar missing.

    search bar is back and only thing that seems odd is trying to move all the desktop files into a file on the external drive folder
    like the download of thunderbird went into the file and yet a "ghost file" what's it called? is left on the desktop

    im confused ill have to rewrite this all...i was able to copy a test file into the external drive

    i should have said the the files were moved into a main desktop file and i have moved the thunderbird file into that folder and a ghost file appeared on screen for about5 seconds and disappeared and yet 40 minutes ago it was left on desktop it seemed like 10 minutes
