I notice the "generic" HP2200 drivers don't allow me to set the printer's memory to in excess of 512MB of RAM & also don't allow for my additional 500-sheet paper tray which sits beneath the printer. Great printer BTW. It replaces my HP5L which I rebuilt twice over a 12 year period before...

I should have mentioned that it also happened with Quicktime Player & Picture Viewer. The rest is okay. Reboot doesn't fix it either.

Hi, I have a 2nd Windows 7 Ultimate computer I'm building for my daughter. Problem is a coloured menu bar in the Start Menu which I can't get rid of. The pic is attached. Any help gratefully appreciated. Thanks :)
