ok my desktop has been normal till like..yesterday, and ITS BEEN PISSING ME OFF!!!!! the icons on my desktop has this white background behind the text,,,and it used to be transparent!! i tried googling for help, ie http://www.hi5hack.com/2007/12/how-to-remove-blue-background-behind.html , but it doesnt work! is ther another method to fix this?? plz help!!XDDD
I think he means the text has a dark blue background (looks like its highlight) To make the test blend in with you desktop do the following Open Control Panel Open Systems Click 'Advanced' tab Click Performace Select / tick 'Use drop Show for icon label' Hope this helps Advanced / Performance Tab / Settings Button and put a checkmark in: Use Drop Shadows for Icon Labels *My first post* ^^
dave709394 has the directions for you already, but here is a slightly different path: Right-click on 'My Computer'> Properties Select 'Advance' tab> 'Performance' Settings Select "Visual Effects" tab Scroll down and select 'Use drop Show for icon label on the desktop' Apply settings But what you should really do is...get a dock. =D
YES FINNALLY FIXED~!! thanks dave+reflection for helping me =] but it was actually something really simple lol ... right click desktop>arrangeicons>switch off lock webitems XDDDDDDD
