My company just installed WINDOWS XP on my company machine. The Blue Highlight around my Desktop Icon Labels is gone. I tried both methods recommended but when I select properties under my computer and go to Advanced there is no option for performance settings. I don't know if the adminstrator removed the option. Is there any other way to get the blue highlight. My eyesight is poor and the highlight helps
