If you still have the shortcuts woth the incorrect images(icons) you can download Tweak UI from:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx
Inside Tweak UI there is an option to repaire your desktop icons
Try Tuneup Styler (part of Tuneup Utilities) as it will do/fix most GUI jobs better and easier... , A very useful tool. t's a shareware .
Icon Restore : Icon Restore installs LAYOUT.DLL (along with the required registry entries) from Microsoft. Two new options are added to the pop up menu that opens when any Windows system icon (ex. My Computer) is right clicked. These options are "Save Desktop Icon Layout" and "Restore Desktop Icon Layout".
After installing Icon Restore, simply place your icons wherever you want them on your desktop, right click My Computer (or any 'system' icon) and left click on "Save Desktop Icon Layout" from the pop up menu.
If your icons ever get moved because your computer entered safe mode or you changed the screen resolution, right click My Computer (or any 'system' icon) and left click on "Restore Desktop Icon Layout" from the pop up menu.
Icon Restore is the perfect solution for people that have to change the screen resolution often.
