Guest Jill Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 Hi, My son's PC, running XP Home edition, started splitting the display screen between his Background choice and about 1/3rd of the panel on the left (vertical) is now set to show "Folder tasks, Other Places and Details" (all expandable). It's like it's an open explorer folder or something. Have tried several desktop resets, gone into explorer to try to reset options etc. nothing worked so far...just want a plain old simple background! Thanks for any help!!
