My computer has stopped loading the wallpaper on startup.  I thought it
might be a suddenly-malicious NEWPAPER program (although it had been 
performing flawlessly for months), so I removed it.  No luck.  I then
re-installed Windows.  Still a blank grey screen for a backdrop.  Does
anyone have any suggestions?

Particulars:  8MHz AT compatible with EGA card and monitor.  Himem and
Smartdrive loaded and active.  Recently installed 4DOS, but the problem
persists with the old processor.

Thanks,
Eric
