Soccercrazy Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 (edited) 2 days ago I notice a "Shadow" of the right click menu item I clicked. Whenever I log out or try to restart it goes away, but then when I right click something and click a menu item a shadow of that item appears and stays there. I tried restarting explorer but still nothing. What can I do to fix this?

vandium Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 If its just a ghost image, you can Right Click Desktop and click Refresh. You must be maxing out your system memory somewhere for this to KEEP occuring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vandium Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 What about when you open a window or somthing, that covers that "ghost" image? It should go away once its covered, and if not...then it has to be an active window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vandium Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 The only window that can go over it is CSS. Everything else doesn't cover it, it just goes on top of everything except CSS. GGGGRRROWWLLLL... Can you click it? Click exit? Find out what program it is, and remove it from the shortcut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soccercrazy Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 Nope can't click it. What do you mean by Find out what program it is, and remove it from the shortcut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandium Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Well programs sit in that side menu. (Steam/skype/aim/msn/etc) You should be able to find out which of the programs down there is causing the problems. Then you can tell it to not be stored in the task bar (or whatever that area is called) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soccercrazy Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 I tried deleting system32 folder. This pretty blue screen with white words popped up and I was like, "Is this some sort of video game?" The screen to me looked like a colorful Christmas tree with white snow on it? JK obviously....

ttaM Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 move the lamp away from your computer. then you won't have a light source to cast shadows. Lol. I want this on the Microsoft help website. I'll say "This helped very much" as many times as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
