    No desktop icons

    This is really strange. I took my laptop home today, booted it up and no icons appear, only a blank desktop no matter who I log in as, even in safe mode. I can hit CTRL ALT DELETE and run commands, but nothing else. Has anyone seen this before and know how to fix this? Thanks in advance.
