Changing Display Properties

Hi,
I tried posting this on the Forum a few weeks ago, but had no replies.  Perhaps someone can help?
My desktop scheme changed it's colour scheme for no obvious reason.  I changed it back to XP standard, but the computer hangs. 
The screen goes to a ghostly colour after the "Please Wait" message disappears.  The keyboard is not dead, but I can't break out or change windows, and I have to force a hard reboot.
Any ideas, please?
TIA,
BK

Have you tried doing anything in Safe Mode?

Hi,

Good question!  In Safe Mode I can't change any of the Display Property settings.  I select the Property (say a Theme, or screen resolution), click on Apply - and nothing changes.  At least it doesn't lock up the computer.

Thanks,

BK
