Iapparently messed up something in my settings - just for
the last day or two, when i click on a window to move it
to another location, a little frame-like box moves first
then the rest of the windows contents catches up.. it's
like a delayed action. How can I make everything move at
once?

thanks for help for what is probably a simple setting
change - Im stumped

right click My Computer, select
Properties/advanced/performance settings button, the setting
you want is in there.

Open System Properties (right click "My Computer" and choose Properties or
open "System" in Control Panel.)

Go to the Advanced tab. Click on Performance. Place a check mark in the item
"Show window contents while dragging." Click OK.

I also have a problem with this. My problem is that I have turned "Show
window contents while dragging" on, but everytime I restart its off again. I
have checked the registry key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\

The value for DragFullWindows is still 1, Windows just chooses to ignore that,

Anyone who can help? This is really annoying.

OP is using the Web Interface and I'm pretty sure it blocks EXE files.

Attached is a small program that reactivates FullWindow. Put it in Startup.
Dell Disables then this program enables.
