I'm just a bit confused at the terminology I should be using to describe the problem, but a screenshot should help. I will get a friend to post the screenshot on his website. |

| 147883 | 2003-05-28 05:56:00 | Hmmmm, awkward problem isn't it? Just notice that with my taskbar, I have a dotted verticle bar after the quick launch icons, the same as the one at the front. You are mising this. Maybe a clue? Will go back and play and see if I can reproduce what you have achieved. :D | Pheonix (280) | ||
| 147884 | 2003-05-28 06:07:00 | the strange thing is.. I don't know how I did it. Yesterday morning, the language bar and the taskbar swapped places, so I "tried' to fix it, but it didn't work. so I left them swapped around the wrong way, and shut down the computer. When I booted it up yesterday afternoon, it had the missing taskbar. Note that this problem does not occur with other user accounts. I am running WinXP Home with SP1. If this is a sign, sometimes when I log in, it freezes, before it loads any of the icons in the system tray. I have to physically hit reset, and the second time it boots up it doesn't have that problem. |

| 147885 | 2003-05-28 06:15:00 | thats an easy fix,that dooted line is actually the 2 of them,just stacked on top of each other,grab the bottom section with your mouse and position it at the end of the quicklaunch icons. | metla (154) | ||
| 147886 | 2003-05-28 06:17:00 | nope. Mine isn't 2 stacked on top of each other. | somebody (208) | ||
| 147887 | 2003-05-28 06:21:00 | tried doubleclicking the dotted line? | metla (154) | ||
| 147888 | 2003-05-28 06:26:00 | tried that.. doesn't do anything. | somebody (208) | ||
| 147889 | 2003-05-28 07:36:00 | As far as we can see from the screenshot, there is nothing wrong with your windows. Push the buttons on your monitor, and resize the *vertical* so you can see everything on the screen. Now hover your mouse over the top edge of the taskbar. Click and hold. Drag down. |

| 147890 | 2003-05-28 07:42:00 | Turn the quicklaunch off. And try opening up a few pages in internet explorer. See if the thing has come back :p | PoWa (203) | ||
