 Well, firstly go into Task Manager, kill the explorer.exe process then re-start it manually. If that dosen't work, start the new task "control.exe" to bring up Control Panel. Then, select the Task Bar and Start Menu icon. Check or uncheck the "Lock the taskbar" option, click Apply. Then either uncheck or check it, depending on what you first did - and click Apply.

| Just a thought... have you perhaps made the Start Bar so narrow you are unable to see it? Try moving your mouse around the side of the screen where it usually sits - if you see a double headed arrow try dragging it out.

| Have you tried this? Go to the bottom of your screen. Your cursor should turn into a vertical arrow pointing in both directions. Click, then drag up. The taskbar and start menu should back. ~Sean
