Windows 7 taskbar thumbnail preview problem - Problem Solutions in Description

New Suggestions on how to fix:

# smnfilms: Go to start and type AERO. three results will show up, then click on third option ''Find & Fix problem......'' and click on advance and then click on option apply effects automatically then click Next. It should bring it up the preview. TRY THAT !

# lonewarrior250: If using a AMD Phenom X4 9750 Quad-Core Prosessor, try changing it, apparently the series is defective.

# Ladyoffears: I went to my display drivers and rolled them back, they still did that flicker, then I re-installed my graphic drivers and the problem stopped. Hope it helps.

# Bunnychanx3: change your theme to windows 7 basic.

# cjburtor: Hey man, I was having the EXACT same problem and none of the suggestions here would fix it. I finally realized that my keyboard was jammed on some key that didn't effect anything else. It's a Razer Lycosa btw. Try unplugging your keyboard to see if it is the problem. Let me know if this works please!


# CoalitionCorps: I have found certain programs steal focus indefinatley after having run for a while. For me this program was skype. If i kill skype, Taskbar works as intended again. Hope this helps for some.


Btw: If you have upgraded from vista, try to uninstall youre os, and make a clean install from youre upgrade disk, not the vista disk.


Old Description:

Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me with a little problem.

When i drag the mouse over the icons on the taskbar, it dosen't show the window, like if i have many windows opened like in your video, they don't show.

But if i hit win + t it shows but i have problems with opening them, I have to hit ctrl+alt+del everytime i want to see another window.

Please write a comment or send me a message if you know a way to fix this.

I was having this same issue for about 3 weeks on Win7-64, I searched all over the web for solutions and nothing I found worked. Coincidentally I ordered a new processor after reading some horrible reviews on the one I was using (AMD Phenom X4 9750 Quad-Core) apparently it's a defective series. I put the new chip in and let it do it's auto-installation thing, when windows loaded back up the problems with the task bar were completely gone.

ok let me update that last comment, I opened up "windows media center" and it started doing it again.

I had the same problem that you showed here. Took me a few hours but this is how I fixed mine. I went to my display drivers and rolled them back, they still did that flicker, then I re-installed my graphic drivers and the problem stopped. Hope it helps.
