Start Button - Fill Bottom Left Corner Of The Screen

Aug 16, 2005

This may be somewhat esoteric but... Under my start button there is a sliver of the taskbar - either blue, silver, or olive green depending on the theme chosen. It wasn't always like this. The start button used to go all the way to the bottom of the screen without any 'line' below it. Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a way to make the start button fill the bottom left corner of the screen again?

No Task Bar No Start Menu - Just Blank Screen

May 13, 2005

A family member ran Norton Anti-Virus and an XP error message came up saying that XP needed to be reinstalled. I don't have a backup disc or a Windows XP disc. I read in another post "The system should have at least come with the setup files located on a hidden partition on the hard drive." Does anyone know how to access this? I can still get into programs and whatnot through pressing ctrl+alt+delete, clicking Applications and New Task. Then I browse for whatever I want to open, i.e. AOL etc. But XP has otherwise completely disappeared off my desktop. All that is there is the background. No taskbar, Start menu, or anything. It won't right click either. I tried System Restore, no luck

Wont Access Start Button / Task Manager / Cmd Screen?

Dec 19, 2007

I'm sure this is a simple question but I can't figure out the answer. I'm running XP yet my start button and the taskbar aren't blue, the standard XP color, they're now looking like they did in Win 98. How do I fix this? Also I can't access the task manager either by control alt del or by right clicking the task bar and selecting task manager there. I've searched on this and found a number of different methods to supposedly fix this but haven't been successful so far.

Lost All Desktop Icons & Start Menu & Taskbar At Bottom

Sep 10, 2005

I have a huge problem that was caused by me trying to delete what I thought were viruses. I went into my "processes running" in the windows task manager and deleted (End Process) what I thought were viruses. I was wrong. I deleted all of my desktop icons and the toolbar/taskbar on the bottom that includes my "start" icon. I can not figure out how to get it back to where it was before I screwed it up. I have tried system restore.

Taskbar Now On Right Side Of Screen?

Jan 27, 2008

The date quit showing when I hovered the cursor on the clock. While playing around with it the entire Start, taskbar, notification, and clock ended up on right side of the screen. While trying to fix it, it disappeared. I rebooted and it came back on the right side. How do I get it back on the bottom? Once back on bottom (hopefully), how do I get the date to show (it's hidden under systray. I can see a small sliver peeking up)?

Programs Run Off Bottom Of Screen

May 30, 2008

Run XP at a low resolution, so I don't have lots of space for programs.Unfortunately, many programs, and windows run off the bottom of my screen and I can't see any of the options past that point. I can't move them because Windows won't let me move the programs past the top of the screen. There is the MOVE option from the menu in the top-left on some programs, but I am looking more for the ability to grab the windows anywhere, while maybe using a keyboard command, and dragging the window where I need it, past the edge of the screen.

Progress Bar Across Bottom Of Black Screen

Aug 24, 2007

I know this is a worn topic, but I searched for similar questions and didn't find the same problem that I am having.Upon reboot, immediatley after the BIOS load screen, I get a white progress bar across the bottom of a black screen. It will move a notch then hesitate for a minute then slowly progress. Once it gets up to about two or three notches it will zip to the end and XP starts to load. If I reboot in Safe Mode the same hesitiation occurs as it loads the list of drivers.Once I start to see the desktop, it will take another 7 minutes or so before I can gain control of the computer and the hard drive runs continuously during that time.

Huge Vertical Lines On Right Side Of LCD Screen

Jan 5, 2010

I have a serious problem with some huge vertical lines on my right side of the LCD screen of my Inspiron 9300. ( see picture below)The green(left side) bordered area is the area I can actually see on my screen. The red(right side) marked area is the area covered by the vertical lines. Because I'm not replacing this LCD AGAIN, and I don't have the money right now to buy a new computer, I was wondering if there is a program or anything that could let me resize and relocate the "screen", as the buttons on the normal desktop computer monitors, which let you move/stretch/reduce/center/etc the screen display,so that i can relocate the complete screen on the left viewable area of my laptop's LCD.[IMG]http://i595.photobucket.com/albums/tt38/tyeclipse/LCD%20Screen/Viewablearea.jpg[/IMG]

Computer Screen Content Is Tilted To Right Side

Mar 6, 2005

I must have done something because I turned on my gateway computer,
logged in and the page with icons of software and folders (with start button
in lower left corner) (whatever this screen is called) is turned around
totally or tilted. In other words the page tilted to the right and the start
button is now in the lower right corner. I don't know how to fix this. I have
to turn my head to read text on the screen now.
