Bligh, I launched Task bar & select Start Task Manager. I did with Explorer open to show the transparent window. It's the same thing on desktop.

I changed my theme from classic to aero and Resource Monitor opened without problem.
Went back to my theme and changed the Display from Medium (125%) to Smaller (100%) and Resource Monitor opened without problem.
With Resource Monitor running I've changed back to my saved theme and Resource Monitor continue without issues.
That means that Resource Monitor can't be launched with classic theme AND Display on Medium (125%), but once running it will run under any theme.
- Classic theme And Display on Medium (125%) = Resource Monitor don't open.
- Classic theme and Display on Smaller (100%) = Resource Monitor open without issues.
- Aero theme and Display on Smaller (100%) or Medium (125%) = Resource Monitor open without issues.
That's very useful info Alberto & well done. I do use an Aero theme so I was unaware of your problem when running a Classic theme.

I seem to be the only person on the planet with this precise problem. I have no other computer issues, but when I open Resource Monitor, I can see the window frame with the title at the top and the three (File, Monitor, Help) buttons below it. The body of the window, however is totally empty and...

SOLVED:I think I figured it out. I went to manually scan something and when it was done the window showed that the screen saver scan was running even though my screen saver was off and asked if I wanted to stop it so I did. I have since deselected that in my screen saver menu and so far that...
When I play back recorded TV, WMC is very greedy and eats up all of my CPU time. I can look at menus, TV Guide, etc. without problem - it's just playback that is the hassle.
But the really big problem that I've got is that even when the window is not full-screen, WMC doesn't like to let go of...
