Hi,
i have a problem with mi O.S., all the tinny icons at the Program's menu look blank. The icons appear like black boxes, and i don't know why :'(. However, the bigger icons look just fine, no problem with them.
If anybody can help me, i'll be grateful :)
thanks in advance
Monica

PD: i don'k want to reinstall the O.S.
 
Are your Display Settings correct? Have you scanned for viruses. I have seen the KLEZ virus do something similar on a Lotus Notes workspace.
 
1) Change your icons to large and then back to normal (in display settings).

2) Download Tweak UI and use the repair icons function

3) Delete the shelliconcache file and reboot
 
I have seen this with corrupt video drivers, and have never seen the klez virus do this to a computer ( just my experience ).

I would Re-install the video drivers and it should solve the problem for you...
