I am finding that many of the dialog boxes, which used to be normal, now display truncated. That is, portions of them, including various command buttons do not display, or only parts of the command buttons display. I'm sure I changed a setting somewhere to cause this, but I can't figure out what setting(s) will restore them to normal.
View 12 Replies View RelatedOur offices have many Lenovo computers, 2004 vintage, no model name shown anywhere. The original driver disc is long lost, but for all but one of these, Windows XP finds built-in drivers that just work. Here is my chronology for the Bad Box that doesn't just work, there's really no alternative except to put the files that the box wants on the drive. To do this, I put the blank drive in one of the other Lenovo boxes (identical hardware in every way) and used XXClone to make a bootable clone of that other drive, put it back in my Lenovo and it booted fine, video looked great. I noticed that this system had never been updated and was running the original flavor of XP (confirmed in the properties of "My Computer"), so I downloaded Service Pack 2 and installed it.

There I find there is no yellow tooltip popup help information when I click the question mark in the top right of the window (next to the big red X) and then click one of the entries such as "fade out menu
items after clicking". Is this true for all XP systems? Or is mine missing? BTW if I click the advanced to on the same window and then click the question mark and then an item such as "system cache", I *do* get the

View 6 Replies View Relatedwhenever I start my laptop two windows search boxes open. This is irritating and it may be linked to the (more irritating) fact that in the right-click dropdown shortcut menu thing, the top option is 'search' instead of explore or open, so double clicking opens a search box, but I don't know. How do I change all that? I'd be really grateful for any pointers.

View 5 Replies View RelatedFor over 6 months now I've been having a problem with my non-expandable windows message boxes shrinking, to the point text is cut off on the right and bottom, and some of the information is pressed together, and is unreadable. My display settings are all normal, and I almost had it fixed in December, when I ran scanfix, but after a couple of weeks, the boxes shrunk again. Microsoft won't help unless I pay, and most of the other forums I've tried either don't answer, or suggest changing the display settings. It Isn't The Display Settings! Currently, I have XP(home)SP2, on a Dell Dimension 4600, with a Dell 1800FP monitor. This is really getting frustrating. I just want to be able to read the info in the boxes again.

The only thing I see on my computer at home is the picture of the company, and the few nderlined links at the bottom of the page and the google search. Nothing to the left or right of the picture.

For example, the subject headings at joystiq.com are a smaller, scraggly, hard to read font now. Cross checking on my laptop, the fonts look perfect there.So how can I determine which font that I installed was the one to mess up my browsers?
