Windows 10: Broken Desktop

I have the exact same symptoms as this post:https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/no-desktop-icons-start-menu-wont-open-taskbar-wont/6f43da79-56ee-4920-aed3-fcf87e63edf9I've tried virtually everything I've found even remotely related to broken boot issues, DISM can't find the source file on the boot USB for who knows what reason I've seen some talk about install.esd not working properly, but I have no idea how to move a converted install.wim to the USB as the "file is too big for this type of drive"Chkdsk running from the OS itself will cause a blue screen Actually I believe

Is my graphics card broken?

UPDATE: Please see here.

I have a Sapphire HD 4830.

When I boot into XP all is initially fine and I am able to see the desktop.

However, when I click on the start bar and navigate a few steps, I receive an immediate white screen of death and a total irrecoverable lock-up.

I am confused about what this could mean and I would be grateful for any suggestions on the best course of action to test and repair the problem.

Does this sort of issue suggest that the graphics card is irretrievably broken?
