Resize Windows

Normally when I use the mouse to resize a window in XP, I can see the window as I am resizing it. Since my
last install, when I resize a window, all I see during the resize is the outline of the window. How can
this be fixed?

Re: Resize Windows

Try this: right click on My Computer (either on your desktop or in the
Start menu) and select properties. In the System Properties window
click on the Advanced tab, then click on the Settings button in the
Performance section of the tab. In the Performance Options window make
sure that the line that says " Show contents while dragging" has a
checkmark, if it doesn't click in the box beside the line to add one.
Now just click on OK on all windows until you are back at the desktop.
