Maybe you have icon view set to auto-arrange. Try right click
desktop/Arrange icons and set to an alternative.  Maybe simply re-setting
this option might fix the problem. (Well, I'm a born optimist). Not sure
whether you've lost drag n drop entirely, or just on desktop. Has this
happened following any crashes or improper shutdowns? If so, there may be a
corrupted OLE system file.

Otherwise:
1. Do a registry restoration (see my tutorial if you need instructions) or
2. Reinstall Windows over the top or
3. Rename or backup the Windows folder and do a complete reinstall.

(Hey, it might be easier to live with the problem!  Keyboard copy n paste
is just about as quick).
