Unfortunately, I cannot lower my resolution as I work with graphics programs and have to have the optimum resolution on my screen. Upon realizing this, I tried a few different things that I hadn't thought to try before. Here's the situation: I have two monitors set up with my system and using my graphics card, I have the task bar scroll across my two screens. The programs on screen #1 show up on the task bar at the bottom of that screen and programs on screen #2 show up at the bottom of the other. When I realized I could change the font size/resolution on one monitor and not the other, I began to wonder if the issue was how my monitors were set up. I started moving programs around from one screen to the other and it seems that programs show up on screen#1 without an issue, where it's hit or miss with screen #2 - where I primarily load my programs. So therefore, it turns out that it's an issue with my graphics card. Looks like I either live with the issue, or don't span my task bar across both screens.
Thank you for your help... without having to play with the resolution and thinking about trying the different monitors, I wouldn't have come to this conclusion. Do you know if there's a way with Windows 7 to extend the task bar across both screens?
