Menu HELP PLEASE I am having a intermittent problem with my windows 7 start menu of late, when I run the mouse across to open Favorites or Document or control panel as examples the sub folder opens but is completely transparent, you can see the sub sub folders or files or shortcuts though.
I have reinstalled the OS from scratch and the issue is still here,
HELP PLEASE its driving me mad
TIA | My System Specs |
