    Hello,

    In the beginning, my M1530 showed another sidebar than now. Now he shows the sidebar 'Windows sidebar'.
    Like on the picture here, of another user of a M1530, is shown the old sidebar. Can someone tell me how I get back that sidebar?

    Isn't it Windows Sidebar? Go to Start -- All Programs -- Accessories -- Windows Sidebar

    I don't think so, because you can't get the little overview of the world. On that you see were it is day, and where it is night. :)

    The sidebar pictured is the Google desktop sidebar. Either Google's or Windows' toolbar can be set to display (Google has an option if you right-click its icon), though I usually uninstall Google Desktop first thing, which means it's either Windows' sidebar or none.
