Strange no desktop

[ToddAndMargo]

Hi All,

Came across a strange one yesterday.  I plugged my
Fedora-Xfce-Live-x86_64-25-1.3.iso live DVD into
a Hewlett-Packard p7-1587c and booted up.

After logging in as Live User, I got a big blue
screen.  None of the decorations, etc. that you would
expect.  But the right click context menu worked and
I was able to do everything I needed (clear the dirty
flag on an NTFS drive and enable Windows Admin accounts).

So you would figure a corrupted disk.  BUTTTTTTT, when I
got back to my shop, the drive worked perfectly in
all my other computers.

Huh?
