Solve : Windows does not come up on screen?

1.	Solve : Windows does not come up on screen?
Answer» I don't know the terminology but when I TURN on this particular computer (not the one I am using) all that comes up is the name of the computer MANUFACTURER. And in order to RUN a program, well atleast the only program that has been loaded you have to alt cont del and it takes you to task manager where you can start the program. When I look in the task manager none of the windows applications are running exclusive of a pause program in systems nothing else in windows is running..... Help Help Help.... And thank You in advance.... Respectfully ShriphootWindows version ? What happened prior to this ? Did it ever work properly ?Windows xp. This computer was given to a friend by their relative. Apparently everything was taken off the system and RELOADED.... They had used it for a couple of years until they purchased a new one... Windows xp is there based on the task manager but just not running.
