Unstablized Vista after long Non-use

Hi:
Thoroughout this afternoon, I worked on Vista, because the PC with Vista was
kept in the backroom without anyone to use it for about one and a half
years. On the first two or three tries, Vista ran perfectly OK without
any issues.

However, this evening after few hours' rest, Vista getting unstablized, one
of most annoying thing is that words/texts getting scrambled to the point
I'm not able read, even I never changed fonts and etc. Another issue is
that there is NO words, ... Start - Programs and all others, hence I'm not
able to access Control Panel to straigten it out.

BTW, I made only one account after reading several responses to my previous
post. Then, I just wondering whether a creation of only one account, me, as
administrator causing this havoc, .... or long-rest/ non-use of the PC with
Vista making a VERY strange behaviour.

In any case, it appears to me that I need to re-install Vista by using CD
came with the PC, ... or what else should I need to stabilized the Vista?

Any insights on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Actually, I fixed the issue by hitting "F11" upon starting Vista. System
Restore did 'Wonder' once having encountered the issue.

Thanks all for knowledgeable responses to my previous post, ... 'One Account
is possible, ....'
