wb loading weird

August 9, 2005 1:37 AM from

ok, it's been doing this for a while now for me, but is finally bugging me enough. whenever i open up window blinds, it is like it is trying to open up in one spot, but fully loads in another, leaving behind like a "ghost copy" i guess ~ below is screen shot of it - see the floating text just above the actual window

has been going on for a few builds now, just so whoever is supposed to know knows. it's the only thing that does this on my computer.

Daumn.... thats looking really... odd
Never seen that happen before!

Dunno why it happens though.

Uninstall WB, reboot, reinstall?!
*Grasping for straws*

lol thanks for the tips, i tried completely unloading window blinds, going back to regular xp theme, restarting, and then loading it up again, and it still happens.... i figured updating it to the latest might fix it - even though all i have to do to make the "mystery text" go away is just put the window over it, then move it and it's gone! it is really odd thouh. my start menu does leaves a small spot in my upper window, if a program installs and puts an icon in the first icon position, and i move it, it leaves a ghost copy also - only seems to be that part of the screen.... hmm

Are you using WindowsFx or Yz's Shadow by chance? I found sometimes
they can cause shadowing problems like that.

Lexo - in the top left, above all the channels, is a small box, has a thing that says "Submit New Post"

i seem to have fixed it somewhat - i turned off the taskbar transparency option, and my start menu doesn't leave behind parts of the menu on my desktop *which goes away when i move an open window over it*. still have to figure the whole text thing out but oh well maybe later
