Dead Slow Right Click on Desktop

When right clicking on the desktop. You can Create a new Folder, Enter the Nvidia Control Panel (and I do often), go to personalize, and something else I do often. "Refresh" I right click and do refresh all the time. I'm not sure it helps anything. It's a bad habit I started in XP.

Basically When I first loaded 7.. it seemed fine. I installed a bunch of drivers, so I'm not sure what one did it. But now when I right click while I'm on the desktop. It takes a solid 3 or so seconds to pop-up.. that is WAY to slow. Vista it was instant.. and Win7 was at first also.

Everything else seems speedy. Starting from Shutdown.. opening programs. Everything is pretty speedy. But the right click feature I use often. It's really slow.

does anyone have any idea's or suggestions?

Also, when I right click on Taskbar, or any of the desktop icons, it's super Fast. only the right click on the actual desktop.

Any help would be great. I think I might go back to WHQL Nvidia driver instead of the BETA for 7. that is what I think I'll try first.

Ya that is what I was thinking. as everything else seems fine. but The last update I did was the NV one. and that is when it started i think. on the NV 185.81 BETA. I think I'll go back to the WHQL and see how that works.

PROBLEM SOLVED..

My Graphics card was not downclocking into 2D Mode, and when I right Click on desktop it was very slow.

I downgraded from the Win 7 BETA driver to the latest Windows Vista x64 182.50 WHQL driver and it's all perfect now. and right click is speedy.

I have that driver installed and my right click context menu on the desktop appears instantly.

what do you mean jon.. I see your point about you didn't get a notification. but if you have something like a GTX 260 like I do. you must install a graphics display driver..

Not sure why yours is fine grim, but the vista WHQL solved it and I'm all good now. hopefully the next Win 7 NV driver will fix it. so I can run a actual win 7 driver.
