Also tried using system restore to no effect,any advice most welcome,hoping
its something simple i have overlooked! This is a long shot, but are you on a flat panel or CRT monitor ? I`m wondering if the resolution might be too high for the hardware "resizer" on a TFT (they have one happy native resolution, the rest are "emulated") I don`t own a TFT, so this is just a guess... Do you get it back to normal if you drop the res ?

I was going to suggest that the integrated video was still active and the taskbar was on that video display screen (without monitor). Tom
