  • I've lost the 'toolbar' in top/center of the desktop and do not know his name or how to turn it back on.

    The quick thing that was on the top/center of my screen has somehow been disabled.  I need to reactivate it.

    By any chance are you talking about the Dell Dock?  Here is the download: http://www.delldock.com/.  Here's where to find essentially the same:http://www.stardock.com/products/objectdock/.  I'm still not sure if Dell Dock is the right program (but it fits your description, and I've seen others where he is what they meant).

    I don't know how to retrieve it if it is missing.  Right-click on an open section of the tab bar and see if Dell Dock is listed as an option, on that you can return.

    Go to start / search box and type msconfig and click twice on the icon for the program that appears and see if you can find Dell Dock in the list of programs that start at startup - if its there and unchecked, check and it should reappear on the next reboot.

    Select start / all programs and see if there is no entry for the Dell Dock - If Yes, click on it and the toolbar should appear.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • What would my monitor show that HALF my desktop background, no matter what it is?

    What would my monitor show that HALF my desktop background, no matter what it is?  All the icons are there, and I can change the display area (800 X 600, 1024 X 768, etc.) as always, but regardless of the chart I use as my "wallpaper" or even if I have the choice between none, 1/2 the office is white and the background color or wallpaper is 1/2.  Web pages and application pages appear as usual, which is 1 reason that I do not understand the view of the office.  I have already installed the updated drivers for my monitor (17 '' Dell E171FPb) as well as my graphics (Nvidia GeForce fx 5200).

    Something to try... right click on your desktop and choose...
    Properties / Desktop tab / button to customize / Web tab...

    Uncheck "my homepage" current / OK / apply / OK

    If there are other entries... uncheck also... or delete them.

  • Can not get on my desktop backgrounds - appears only a black color background

    I wanted a new theme for my computer so I decided to download the theme of 'Bing Maps aerial imagery of Europe. " After that I started to download the theme everthing was always very well - background images for this theme were projected on my desk. However, for one reason or another, I then decided that I turn to my old theme - while images of the theme 'Bing Maps aerial imagery of Europe' was still in download. However, after the change of theme, background image has not changed. Instead, was projected to place a background image for the theme 'Bing Maps aerial imagery of Europe'. As a result, I tried to remove the theme of "Bing Maps aerial imagery of Europe", but, unfortunately, Windows does not repsond to this action. Instead, I decided to delete all the images - those whose who had downloaded. However there is now a black background that I can not change, even when I change the theme that I use.

    I also noticed that there is a "unsaved theme" that contains the background of black. However, this theme can not be deleted.

    I accidentally hit the keyboard and the image of the desktop screen changed to landscape

    I do not understand your post. You mean the desktop image is that of a landscape and you don't know how to change back or upside down image of the screen? If the latter (which is what I guess you really mean), then Ctrl-Alt up arrow or check the Settings applet display video card or a video card Control Panel applet.

    According to the issue description slide show on your desktop (in the background) is blurry and bigger. The question could be if there is some corruption settings or drivers either get corrupt / needing an update.

    Then, I suggest you to try the steps in the following methods and see if it helps.

    Method 1

    Follow the steps below to set the desktop background and select the photo to fit the display.

    1. open the wallpaper by clicking on the Start button , by clicking on Control Panel, appearance and personalization, personalization, and then clicking desktop wallpaper.

    2 click on the image or color you want for your background.

    If the image you want to use is not in the list of background images to display, click the location of the image downwards arrow to view other categories, or click Browse to find the picture on your computer. When you find the image of your choice, double-click it. It will become your desktop wallpaper and appear in the list of desktop backgrounds.

    3. under how the image must be positioned, choose to have the picture fit the screen, tile, or be centered on the screen and then click OK, you can choose here to adapt to the screen.

    Method 2

    If the problem persists you can try the steps provided by Zeyou responded on February 11, 2011 in the following thread and see if it helps.
