 * Your upgrade did not complete successfully.
    Try: – switching to the Twenty Ten
   theme by renaming your current theme’s folder in wp-content/themes using [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients)
   or whatever file management application your host provides.
 * – [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F)
   by FTP or phpMyAdmin.
 * – re-uploading all files & folders – **except** the wp-content folder – from 
   a **fresh** download of WordPress.
 * – re-running the upgrade manually using wp-admin/upgrade.php.

 * Can you possibly give me very basic instructions on this as I am a bit nervous
   about doing this
