Missing Tabs in Display Properties

[Ponyboy]

In my display properties, the tabs are not showing, but if I click in the
general area where they were then I can browse through the tabs.

I rebooted in safe mode and the tabs are there.

Any help with whatever reg entries I need or whatever the prob is, Is
greatly appreciated

and they used to be.

Yep i have the same problem, in safe more i see them but not whe
running standard.

Sorry, but there is no fix for this problem. I am working on a machin
which was upgraded from windows 98 to xp pro. I've tried many differen
driver versions for the onboard ATI RAGE PRO LT. The drivers have openg
support and all the tabs are still gone! So that's proof that Microsof
Knowledge Base Article 283751 is full of BS. And more importantly
nearly 4 years after posting that article and having released SP2 fo
XP, THIS PROBLEM STILL REMAINS UNFIXED! It remains so unfixed, that th
only solution seems a complete XP reinstall. Complete reinstall of O
with reinstallation of all software would take several days on this pc
and the client will not go for that.

I cant believe that installing SP2 over this installation will not fi
the problem.

And yes, of course I've checked all the registry entries and there ar
no settings that prohibit the tabs from being shown.

I've tried also some programs that claim that they can fix this... an
they can't.

So much time has passed since this problem has surfaced. THERE IS STIL
NO SOLUTION?! AHHHRGH!! BIG THUMBS DOWN TO MS FOR THIS BS.
