What's Happened Here

My taskbar has gone t*ts up techiesq4.th.jpg

At the bottom my quick launch favourites have all appeared in a line, they used to be hidden, I've ticked / unticked "lock the taskbar" & quick launch but nothing seems to get it back to how it was.

Any idea's please?

    Try unlocking the taskbar and hover the curser right on the upper edge till you get the 'arrows symbol' that points up and down and drag it down a notch. If this works then lock the taskbar again

    I've tried that but it won't go now lower, it'll go up but no lower that what's showing.

    Everythin on show in the image is what was there before.

    What happened, for some unknown reason my taskbar shot up to the right hand side, I dragged it back down to the bottom, it's since dragging it down the problem has happened.

    Try going to properties and unticking everything, then reticking them (Fixed my friends toshiba which had a similar problem recently)
    :idea:
  • Drag the whole bar up to about the middle right of the screen and drop it there. Then drag back down to the bottom and do the resizing thing suggested by AlienRik. If it still won't let you put it down then drag it up the way instead and let go. Then drag it right down to the bottom, doing all that should reset it.

    Thanks for the help peeps, but dam it, nothing seems to work no matter what I try :angry::angry:

    It looks like I'm going to have to dao a factory restore :mad: :mad:

    Would that mean I have to reload everything back onto my system? :confused:

    Have you tried system restore ?
    Without the rain you wouldn't have the rainbows !

    I came into this world with nothing and I've still got most of it left!
