    Hi,

    I am having a problem with the taskbar dissappearing in my dv5000z notebook. It only happens when the computer sleeps for a while and then I push a key to wake it up. Sometimes the taskbar at the bottom of the screen just isn't there and I can't figure out how to get it back. Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    i don't know what could be causing that (which isn't that good) but a way to try to get it back is press control-alt-delete When that task manager comes up, click to file->run and type in explorer.exe

    this should restart your taskbar
