Problem with start orb

[killjoy]

I have the same problem. this is on a brand new windows 7 installation. I installed windows along with all my apps and several themes...never used a start orb changer.... everything was fine until last night when I installed chipset and audio drivers then flashed the bios. after that the windows start orb shows no matter which theme I am using. I amg oing to try uninstalling and reinstalling my themes next but Im lost beyond that....any help would be great thanks.

Ive had a couple new installs that set my DPI to 125% for some reason...
My monitor, I suppose...
Maybe make sure yours is set to 100%, before getting too carried away reinstalling your themes, man...
Might save you some trouble...

oshea you hit the nail on the head. thankyou. setting it back to 100% fixed my start orb.... but text is much harder to read now in 1080p on my 36" lcd tv.

Yeah, I know what you mean...
Right now Im on a 42", myself ...
Maybe try adjusting your resolution...
Personally, I like the proportions of 1366 x 768...
Im glad that worked out for you, man...

ah I see...I was used to working from my laptop which is native 1366x768 but I just got a free desktop pc which does 1080p...I watch a lot of bluray so was loving the 1080p....I think I will look into adjusting font size so I can read explorer. Thanks again bro.
