I am having some graphic problems with Windows XP. The most noticeable
problem is that menu bar graphics are appearing "backwards" (the best way I
can describe it, i.e. menu bar items are indented when my pointer is over
them
and pops out when it is selected, same goes for certain buttons). I've also
noticed a few other problems that come and go, such as the start menu icons
changing from large to small, file icons in Word disappearing, etc, but these
are mostly problems that don't seem to happen all the time, and fix
themselves.
The problem is only on one account on the computer, the other accounts all
seem to be fine.

I have McAfee VirusScan running on my computer and have done a recent scan,
and have also done a recent scan using ad-aware.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Travis Nielsen

If the problem is with one account only, create a new account and copy
the settings from the old account to the new. If all is working well
delete the old:
