Windows 7 Taskbar bug on 7100

I believe this problem affects people who have 7077 or have upgraded from 7077 to 7100.

No.... I always fresh install , formmating the partition first to clear all files, this bug is there on both my desktop and laptop.
 
TMH,

These are binary registry values, something even I usually don't mess with. That's very dangerous territory

Where did you get this registry hack from?

Make a registry back up if you're worried.

Fixing the High Contrast and Classic theme problem also fixed my "blur" bug. I use the same NVidia driver for GeForce 6600 I had in Windows 7077.



If you guys did a fresh install then the problem is quite bizarre indeed.

Edit: Forget my tip. IT'S BACK. I just tested multiple times yesterday and it wasn't there.. now it is, again. Both using small taskbar on top and moving taskbar from left to top. :confused: Pretty random.
 
Try pressing the power button to turn the computer off.

Restart it and the taskbar should be reset.
 
I have this problem.
Win 7 RC 64-bit, fresh install, GeForce 8800GTS, using small-icon taskbar on the top.

Simply unlocking, moving to sides/bottom, and then repositioning at the top fixes it, but very annoying to do on every reboot.

Haven't tried the hard reset suggested by reghakr, but I'd rather not if I don't have to, however if someone can confirm that it works that would be swell.

Have you ruled out the possibility of a bad driver? As in have you installed the latest Windows 7 driver for your gpu? And if that didn't work or wasn't available for your specific model than have you tried the latest available Windows Vista driver? ;) I only ask this because I know there were a couple others in a different thread with a very similar problem and it was just a matter of trying a different driver for them.. ;)
 
there is no driver for my specific ati gpu (radon XPRESS 1100)
but i have installd the latest vista driver still no good
thnx for your help :)
 
having the same problem

after moving the bar to the bottom and back to the top to get rid of the extra taskbar piece, maximizing a window still only maximizes to where that extra taskbar piece was ... until i change to large icons then back to small and put back on the bottom and then back on the top again.
