Display Tab in Desktop Properties

Thanks for that.

I should have said what was happening. The display tab
is still there and visible. When you click on the
Display tab there is no response - it doesn't even show
you the wallpaper options etc, the Display Properties
window just hangs and stops responding. However all the
other tabs work fine.

Hi Paul,

Do you have any third-party skinning/theme software installed ? If so, you may try to uninstall them and try again.
Nothing else comes to my mind at this time.
