I have Vista SP2 and I have a problem with my sidebar... as many others do.

My sidebar has not worked for some time I ran the command prompt sfc/scan and found no errors in the sidebar, it shows my gadgets, but they don't work... loads of the sidebar and gadgets do not work IE. the clock gadget will load but the hands do not move and are glued directly to the top of the background is all black. I also tried the fix DPI adapting it to 120 and that didn't fix either. Also im now using IE9 not IE8 for a browser. Now, I have also tried the reg commands and deleted the file settings.ini and still nothing... PLEASE HELP ME!

Have you used ALL of the above methods?

If the clean boot did not allow the sidebar to load or work then it is probably corrupted
and you need to do the other steps.

When you have uninstalled McAfee have you run the McAfee removal tool to avoid problems
remnants of the original?  If this does not work now.

=================

If you used ALL the previous methods and run the McAfee removal tool then maybe a
Upgrade/repair on-site installation could help. This allows you to keep the programs
and although redundant data backups are always a good idea. (It's less likely to work if)
you do not use the previous methos in full under the same parameters and conditions would still be
be in force.)

You can use another DVD that aren't copy protected but you you need to own
Product key. It must be the same version 32 or 64 BIT Vista OEM. Also the system
machine to usually sell the cheap disk since you already own Windows. Don't forget to make a
good backup or 3 (security in redundancy).
