IMac OS10.7.5

Very recently something strange has developed on my machine. Both Finder and Trash are frozen, no icons on screen, no access to docs at all, menu flashing or not there at all!

But things like Mail and Firefox working fine.

I have done a safe reboot, done all disk checks and reinstalled system, all to no avail.

Any Ideas???

How full is your hard drive (gigs used and gigs free)?

Launch Disk Utility...and try a permissions repair. If that doesn't help...we can try other things.

Done that already. In fact every check in Disk First Aid has been done, disk and permissions.
