Hey VistaForums,

For some reason, when I click the Start Menu and then before I click on "all programs" (most used program list), I click on a program and it doesn't open. Ever.

For example: I click on - Windows Live Messenger but it just doesn't load. It clicks, but it doesn't load. Nor does it appear to open any sort of process.

Same with iTunes, but yet programs such as Nero Vision work.

I can open Itunes and Windows live messenger by clicking on an icon that opens a song in itunes, or through the all programs tab.

Anybody have a clue why this is happening? Any fixes?

I have set up a selective start up to make sure that I do not have all the extras loading up at boot up, but i am getting irritated with the notification bubble keeping on appearing in the taskbar. I have searched the help menu, but was wondering if anyone has figured out how to turn off this message??

Cheers

Found it. Right click start, properties, Notification area, Click customise next to hide inactive icons, find program, click on hide when inactive and select hide form the list. Should have looked here first. Cheers Diver99

Hey guys, I have an interesting problem. IN my start menu programs folder, there is another folder called "programs" which appears to redirect to the main start menu programs folder. There is no folder named "programs" in either the start menu...

in older comupters.after IBM punch cards, in the 70s go,run, were commands to initiate a program .the start menu contains all programs even to start the stop program

I've just upgraded to Vista, and on the whole its very nice, i don't like the fact there is no "up" button on the file explorer but i that's no big deal ^^

However, i really don't like the new start menu, i much prefer the old cascading style menu, is there any way i can change it? (Without using the ugly "Classic Start Menu" option)

What do you guys think of the new system?

And does anyone know WHY they changed it?

Cheers
