Solve : Windows XP Icon backgrounds?

Answer»

4 machines in this house, all running XP or XP Pro. Two show the desktop icons with text in opaque background and two show the text in a blue background - inverse video

How do you change this ?

Easy PROBABLY when u know how - but I'll bet it's hidden in some HELP file !!!Change the background color.No offence to anyone - but I must be having a blonde moment.

Where do you change the setting ?

Right click any empty spot on the desktop and select PROPERTIES...Yes - done all that - get the options for desktop and screensavers etc. Selected the Windows Classic and then you get additional options for things LIKE Icons, icon spacing etc.

I am being really dumb here - but cannot find the setting that makes the text under icons appear in inverse video so I get the blue box and reverse text !!

Oh - I need another glass of WINE or somethingBackground tab.ajpearson, I believe this is what you're looking for...
