I went out and bought the upgrade from Windows Xp home to Vista Premium. The
upgrade went smooth (Had to remove Roxio, but not an issue). The only 2
issues I am having are:
1.) I cannot for the life of me change the color of the taskbar (Hate the
black). According to what I have read you have to goto Color and Appearance
and make sure that you are running the Areo color scheme and transpareny set
to on, which it is. I have a single 21inch gateway monitor (1600x1200,
32bit), but vista/nvidia thinks that I have 2 monitors as I have that
capability with my pc (but only 1 connected). Regardless of what I do, the
taskbar still remains black. I also downloaded the latest drivers from
Nvidia.
2.) I use Msn messenger with my job, anytime that I get a message from
someone I cannot see it flash like it did in Windows Xp, infact It does not
appear to flash at all. Now this could be related to the color of the
taskbar but I am not sure. I even uninstalled it and reinstall with no luck.
I have the option set in messenger to flash when I get a message but this is
critical that I get this working right.
I appreciate the help!
