Another one of my Friends PCs. (they're pretty problem prone...)

Right, he did a reformat, and it boots to Windows. Well, not really, it shows the default desktop, but no taskbar/processes running, he just installed x64, any ideas?

Never come across anything like this before, all my PCs work fine...

just install an x64 processor, and reinstalled x32 windows

just install an x64 processor, and did not reinstall windows
