OK, I assume my problem has happened to someone else and already answered in
the posts, but I haven't found it so here goes,
I think this started with the SP3 upgrade, which I have reversed (no shows
XP, sp2).
Half of my program icons for the control panel (sounds, mouse, display,
printers) are in classic view the other half are in the category view. Real
pain when trying to install or repair programs and hardware as one is in one
view the other in the other view.
Can someone PLEASE help me get all of these back on both views.
I have tried another system restore, but keep getting the message that my
computer cannot be restored and nothing has been changed. (This is after
restoring to a time PRIOR to SP3)
Thanks, as I am going nuts trying to resolve this issue.
