Can somebody help me please?

I need to know if anyone is having the same problem I'm having. It's driving me a little crazy :rolling:

When I choose the Dell default theme and run tasks, contacts, calender or file explorer I get blue lines running along my screen... starting right and fading left. I also get a blue haze on the windows default theme.

Has anybody else had this problem?

Some say it's the theme. But most of the themes (99.9%) have this blue line problem. Is it not either a unit screen problem or another MW5 bug?

I will attach a picture so you can look, see and compare!

Any advice will be welcomed!! I really appreciate your time.

That's just the background of tasks, contacts, calender and file explorer. Annoying, isn't it? I guess you have to pick a theme that doesn't use that background. My WM 2003se machine doesn't have it in File Explorer. Maybe there's a setting? Search for registry tweaks.
Anybody else know?

These colors are adjustable. In Dell's themefile (.tsk) they picked this color. It isn't an OS bug, but just a bad color choice by Dell.

Really, thanks alot for your advice :) Yes it 's a shocking choice by Dell But like I said I find a lot of the themes I download have these blue lines on them and the Windows default one has a blue haze. Thought it was either a fault with the unit or bad programming by Microsoft.

If this is adjustable, how do I "adjust" it out? Can you recommend a program to do this?

Again, I do really appreciate your help!! Your advice is golden :approve:

You can also get theme editors if you really like either of those theme's and you can edit out the lines in the background. Microsoft has a good theme generator...or if you want a cool little "color/theme" editor click on the following link:

You can create your own themes. Download and install in your PDA TKCreater. It's free. You can load a picture and choice the background color you want. You save the new theme and then you should activate this one under Start -> Settings -> Today.
