Hi Dorothy, how was the desktop loaded? Did they give you a cd, or has it got a recovery partition? Although I've never run sfc using an OEM cd, like the one you have for your laptop it should work. The main thing is that the system files on the computer are the same as those on the cd. 

                  John.

Dorothy, programs appear in the system tray because they're running. The
way to clear your system tray is to stop programs loading at startup. The
higher the number of programs allowed to start with windows the slower
your computer's going to be. They all use up resources.
 The only two programs that run at startup on my computer are AVG and
Jaws. There really is no reason to have everything running at startup.
 If you go to start, then run, type msconfig and press enter the system
configuration window will open. If you back tab till you're on the tabs,
then arrow to the startup tab, then press tab to get onto the startup
list. Everything in that list is starting with windows. The more of it you 
uncheck the better. If you're not happy doing it yourself you could get
help doing it. When you've unchecked what you want to uncheck tab down to
ok and press enter or activate with the spacebar. You'll get a prompt to
reboot. click yes. Your computer will reboot. You'll get a message when
your computer starts to say that you are running in selective mode.
There's a check box to stop the message being shown again. Check it and
press enter. That's it.
                    John.
