| | Posted: | | | |  As you can see from this screenshot, the icons on the buttons bar are acting weird. Here they are acting transperent causing my wallpaper to shine through. (I've drawn a big circle to underscore the problem) Also I've marked three other areas. The color in these areas are white, I believe they ought to be the same as your [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Colors] "Menu"="xxx xxx xxx" color. In my case that would be the same brownish color as the main window (213 204 187) The button bar isn't staticly showing my background, it accumulates tidbits from other overlapping windows and gets more and more bizarre during the course of the day so to speak. Some info about my setup: I'm running Windows XPsp2 in "classic style" with the themes service stopped. In DVD Profiler v3.01.1104 I have selected the "Classic" theme (view->theme->classic) Resolution: 1152x864 32bit Color Depth |

| | Posted: | | | | If it's of any help, I can add that I'm using an ATi Radeon 9800 Pro card with Ati Catalyst 7.1 Drivers. It wouldn't surprise me if this turened out to be an ATi issue.

| | Posted: | | | | I had that problem, but managed to fix it. I toggled through the different color schemes and changed to large icons, and the graphical corruption went away. |

| | Posted: | | | | I'm running into this issue too. But besides the background showing through, sometimes, I think if I've resized the window, icons get written over each other.
I'm using a Nvidia GeForce FX5200. So it's not just with Radeon cards.
Oh yeah... I'm using the XP theme. | | | | Last edited: by D_Crawford |

| | Posted: | | | | I'm using Windows XP sp2 with 32 bit color and 1152 x 864 display properties., and I don't display any one of the symptoms displayed on your page.. Here is a link back to a different forum with my page on display . do you use color scheme -default blue for your wallpaper? or do you use black ?? | | | In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird.

| | Posted: | | | | I use XP Pro with a Radeon 9600 clone at 1024 and have no display problems at all. I'm also running a black screen background with custom made wallpaper. | | | John

| | Posted: | | | | Just an update. The problem still persist with version v3.50.1240. I've also gotten a new computer in the meantime, but still an ATi Card, this time a 3870x2. I think the easiest way to fix this is to change the icons to display a solid color background interface instead of a shaded background in the Windows Classic Style theme. |
