Date not showing when hovering over clock in taskbar.
As the title says I cannot see the date when hovering over the clock in the task bar.
I see a very brief flash of what could be the date only.
Any help appreciated.

Hover over other items in system tray. They work?
Did you reboot already... but still same problem?

Thanks for the reply.
The other items work fine.
Only the date flashes very briefly when hovering over the clock?
I have rebooted and it works fine for a few minutes then goes back to just flashing quickly again?
