Aug 1, 2005I know this is simple but it's driving me nuts that I cannot fix it. The Help desk just updated my computer and now there are boxes surrounding the names of the desktop icons. I do not want these boxes. When I change the desktop color, it changes the color of these boxes. How do I fix this so there is no box and it is clear with just the names. I can't stand looking at this!

Jul 20, 2005I stared having this problem after installing SP2 on my compaq presario with Windows XP Home Edition. I'm using sbc yahoo dsl as my ISP, when i run the sbcyahoo program to log in, the window appears but it's all white, the text is there but no background color(background is usually light blue), and when my browser opens to the home page is the same thing, and to make things worse the text on the page is way too big. I use both browsers IE and SBCYAHOO and it's the same problem, I already tried to change browser settings on both but I have no changes at all, also I tried going into different websites and they all have no background colors.
View 1 Replies View RelatedBackground Color / Text Size Also Too Big
Jul 23, 2005I am using Windows XP and for about 2 months (I guess) certain websites look funny. As an exmple, the background for Yahoo is white even though I have tried to change it to a theme that yahoo offers. The text size also is too big and all over the place- looks weird. I have tried everything I can think of but i am a novice and am wondering if there is some simple answer here or something else I can try? Is it XP or a problem with my browser? MSN also has only a white background with big letters that look awkward. If I try to change the background to blue, it won't do it. It's driving me nuts!

View 7 Replies View RelatedChange Log On Background Color - Showing Dark Wallpaper
Aug 12, 20021. Click Start > click Run > type regedit > and click OK.2. Navigate to the following registry key: HKEY_USERSDEFAULTControl PanelColors 3. In the details pane (right-side), double-click the Background string value item. 4. Change the value to a 3 number RGB value, and then click OK . You have now changed the logon background color.NOTE: I went looking for this registry key after using the "Change the Logon BackGround" tweak, and that bright XP blue color kept showing before the OS had a chance to load my dark wallpaper. This way if you choose a color close to the wallpaper shown, the load of the wallpaper is less noticeable.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSetting The Default Blue Background Color In Ntoskrnl.exe, Winlogon.exe?
Jan 22, 2008I was wondering if anyone knew where the default light blue color background (approx rgb 80 110 200) that appears just before the welcome screen (not classic logon) when you boot XP or switch users is set. I'd like to change it so that it matches my customized desktop/welcome screen.
I've changed the following registry keys but no luck:
HKEY_USERS.DEFAULTControl PanelColorsBackground
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsNTCurrentVersionWinlogonBac kground
HKEY_USERS.DefaultControl PanelDesktopWallpaper
It might be the same color as the one that appears when you run chkdsk and stuff like that at boot time, so I was thinking the color is set in ntoskrnl.exe?

Oct 21, 2007When I open command prompt (DOS) it has the colors black background and grayish-white text, which is the default color. But when I type the command 'start', it opens a new window with blue text and green background.I think it does this because I download the program Replacer, which runs in DOS and makes the screen those colors. I also think the Replacer program did something to the system Path which modifies DOS to make it those colors when running a new window.

View 7 Replies View RelatedClicking Any Icon:disappearing Everything But Background Disappears & Comes Back?
Nov 27, 2008when I click on an icon, say 'My Computer' on the desktop, everything but the background picture disappears, then comes back, but 'My Compute'r is not open. I'll click again and it opens. This happens if I open a program with a single click from the lower tool bar area also. I've noticed the screen will flicker once, after which invariably this situation occurs. I recently dumped and reinstalled Firefox, but before that I opened it one day and there was a one inch high field with some message I've since forgotten at the bottom of the window, and the Google logo, etc. was all shifted to the right. It's then that I reinstalled Firefox.
