hi,
If you know about System Restore then you are computer savvy.
"Right" click an open spot on the desktop, click Properties.
A Display Properties window will appear, click Appearance.
Now change the Windows XP style and Color Scheme
(2 different boxes) to something else and click "Apply".
Now change
them back to what they were originally and click "Apply".
Now Restart
(re-boot) your computer.
Regards,
