So I installed K-lite codecs under my local acct and that did nothing - still looking at a black desktop. I even stopped and started DS service - made no difference.

AzDude - I had tried those two settings and they made no difference, BTW, this was in my new local acct with only the DS service and MS services running. Sean - I had purchased DS 8 in the past through my OD subscription.
