my taskbar is being weird, when i try to minimize something, goes in a small bar above the taskbar, but the taskbar itself remains blank. even when im running a program, it doesnt show up in the XP taskbar

ive been looking thru settings and i cant find anything to change... please help me :imu:


im using windows XP home edition, i have not had this problem before, and i dont think i changed any settings...

did you try restarting?

Search Microsoft's website about your problem.

Windows XP has some stupid features built in and Microsoft convienently forgets to tell you about them. I practically gaurantee that the answer will be there.

^--- thats the problem...

i dont wanna search microsoft, i dont know what to look for... anyone have any idea?

did you try to drag the bar up, or make it bigger?


EDIT: thought it was the quick launch bar
