I've noticed that for CdC 3.0 (21/9/06) when I set the "red screen" and later clear it, then close CdC, the colour settings on Windows XP sp2 on my Dell 9400 notebook have been altered.
In particular, in the start menu, for cascading menu items, the selected item (from which child menus have sprung) has been altered: I normally have the background set to blue but after running CdC with red screen, the background changes to pale grey. My default scheme is "Windows XP style" for "windows and buttons". I've worked out how to fix the change that CdC makes: right-click on the desktop > Properties > Appearance then select Windows Classic for "windows and buttons" in the drop-down, then re-select the Windows XP style (without actually making a permanent selection). Clicking OK makes Windows restore the correct color settings. Rebooting also works, *provided* I've not made any changes to the appearance after running CdC and before rebooting. The effect is 100% repeatable and (AFAIK) doesn't happen with CdC 2.76. DN -- _________________________ David Nicholls http://www.dcnicholls.com Yahoo!
