No desktop or start menu

I apologize if this is (as I suspect) a frequently asked question. I did not
have any luck searching for it.

I have a Windows XP VPC using VPC 2007 on a Windows XP host. The host is XP
SP3. The VPC is XP SP2.

When I start the VPC, it comes up w/o error and there are no desktop icons,
start menu, or status bar. I can use task manager to run programs including
windows explorer and internet explorer, but still no desktop.

Is this a common problem? Any suggestions for a remedy?

Thanks!
