Guest icon challenged Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 At various times (no particular pattern) the roll-over message/hint is either not displayed in a visible area (partly or entirely hidden by say, windows tool bar), or not displayed at all. The biggest offender appears to be the date/time indicator (on the toolbar). By hovering the mouse icon over the indicator a small text box appears with the time in it). After a few checks on the time, the rollover box with time stops displaying. The only way I know to reset the functionality is to right click on the toolbar and select adjust date/time. Even without making any changes, after closing the setup window, the rollover display is good for a few more checks...
