    Hi,

    I bought my sz320 last year, and during all this time, when I start it up and shut it down, I had the window's messages or protector suite's messages over a black color screen.

    Since today, this background color during start up or shut down became a light blue, but everything else is working ok. I tried to put it black again without any success. I looked in the display options - appearance, but there isn't a color option for start up and shut down.

    Can anyone explain what happens whith my display? How can I fix this "problem"?

    Sorry about this stupid question and about my wrong english.
    Thanks

    Mauricio

    It's vista? go into personalize, appearance, click on "open classic appearance", advanced and change the color of the desktop.

    Hi Ayle,

    My windows is a XP, and as i said, I think that this is not a appearance problem. My desktop color is fine. Only during the start up and shut down the screen color change to this blue screeen (and blue sceeen on windows scares me)


    Thanks
