Dock not appearing at boot up

Dock is not opening on boot up. OS X 10.5.2. If I log off and then straight on again it pops up ok. But I have to do it all the time now.

Re: Dock not appearing at boot up
In actually it could not be Windows as 1) Windows does not recognize HFS+ volumes let alone read or write to them and 2) even if it did recognize your Mac volume, it would not be able to alter OS X system files. Boot Camp may be the culprit, but there is no reason for that feature to even access, let alone alter OS X GUI preference files, when its sole purpose is to permit a Windows volume to be accepted by the hardware as a valid boot volume, so it is a long shot.

It sounds as if you have a problem that you may need to report to Apple if no one else has experienced a similar problem.
