Menu HELP PLEASE

[Mistral1]

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

Not sure how if I click on anything else the menu will disappear ?

Just a stab in the dark, but do you have the latest video driver installed? Latest from the video card manufacturer, not Windows.

Press the print Screen button when it happens and it will take a picture of everything on
your screen. Then open up Paint and press the Paste button and it will be there, save it and upload the picture.

Open the Start Menu and then tap the printscreen key on your keyboard.

It should be up at the top right area of the keyboard.

Hello Mistral1, welcome to Seven Forums!


It's up there with the F keys, it'll say something like "PrtScn" over on the right.

On your nest reply use the advanced button, if you are using the Quick Reply, and below the text window there is an option to Manage Attachments. That opens another browser window with options to both choose the screenshot and to upload it. It may take a few seconds to upload, but you will know when it is complete when the attachment appears in the original reply options.

We were all too eager to help you find the Printscreen key but now you've stumped us!

Hmm... might I suggest checking your system files using the sfc /scannow command: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1538-sfc-scannow-command-system-file-checker.html

Anyone else, feel free to chime in...
