Hi buckscary, welcome to the forums, glad you found us.
Alas the information you have given us is not enough for us to even take a wild guess at what has happened.
Can you please reply here and tell us:
What version of Windows do you have - 95/98/ME/2000/XPHome/XPPro?
What were you doing when you were "told" to restart? Were you installing some software? What software? Was it the installer that popped up a message to restart?
Lost your "dektop & some other things" is a pretty vague statement - Did you lose the background wallpaper image and some icons or can you not get into Windows desktop at all?
