well ok, i have this issue with my desktop atm... my windows toolbar isnt showing the programs running like IE and stuff where it should be... major inconvenience, infact the toolbar istn even there anymore and this all happened shortlk after i installed my new 7800gs... i dont think its the problem, as i installed it and it was working fine until i hit something... need help..


__________
basically my windows taskbar thing with tthe startmenu is missing... and if i hit th windows key, the startmenu pops up on the top of my screen...


and i dunno if this is relevant but i installed a 7800gs after previously owning a 9800pro
 
Stupid question, but did you mess with your taskbar properties? I have people at work ask me about this sort of thing all the time and they have usually checked or unchecked something on their taskbar properties.
 
nope... not that i know of..
i have the standard auto_hide, keep the taskbar ontop, group similar and thats it....

i dunno why... currently i have the adresstoolbar activated so i can see the clock... orsele i cant heh...

this is really buggging me..


HELP NEEDED!
 
nope... it is on the bottom like i manually scrolled it down but i cant pull it up wihtout activating a toolbar such as Language or Adress or osmething...

pissing me off since its only happeneing on my user account
 
Have a look in the registry to see if you can find where the settings are stored. I'm not on XP so can't really check right now, erm, mine are at

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\advanced

Either way, if you can find those values, search for the same key names, and it should show you the other users settings, then you could replace yours with theirs, thus replicating their arrangement.

I dunno if you'l be able to find them, but yeah, try searching for TaskBar StartMenu that kinda thing in regedit... it might just be that the dimensions are set wrong.

Try moving the screen alignment up?

Move the screen alignment up, and if the taskbar is even slightly isible, click on it and drag it up, you should be able to both expand it or drag it somewhere else. (on it right click and check lock taskbar isn't tickedbefore doing this)

just some ideas.
