    1. Are you using a custom theme?
    2. Right click on the Start and pick properties/customize/set to default.
    3. You must run sfc /scannow until it fixes the problems if it can. It may take 3 or 4 times with reboot after each time. Windows 7 will not work properly until System File Checker comes up clean,(no problems).

    likely you have to do a Repair Install of your windows.

    Before trying a repair install,do you have any restore point before the start search disappear?
