Task bar seems to hang - turns dark blue with no icons showing - for about 8 SECS after deactivating the screen saver either by TOUCHING a key or moving the mouse. If I wait the 8 sec or so then everything is fine. Task bar has an hour glass if I hover over it.
I have a default screen saver. I've started noticing that all PCs EXPERIENCE so some sort of DELAY - some more than others. But mine is excessive. No errors in event viewer. Tried a few solutions found through my searches, but no LUCK. Small problem but It bothers me. Any one experience this issue.
Thanks
