tooltip problem

One thing I've noticed with XP is the taskbar tooltips are always underneath the taskbar, so I can't read them. This is really annoying.
Is it just me, or is everyone getting this?
 
I've only gotten it when using themes other then a default windows theme like silver or such..Are you using a 3rd party theme and notice this?
 
nope. The first thing I did after installing XP was change to the boring plain old "classic" theme because it is faster.

When I get home I'll have to try enabling themes to see if it makes any difference.

I have the task bar set to "always-on-top" which is default but the tooltips should still be above it.

It's particularly frustrating when trying to view the useful tooltips given by programs that reside in the system tray.

so it is just me then. hmmmm...
 
hmm I just realised it's not happening all the time. Maybe some software I use is doing it.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
