    A few items on my desktop have text showing, but it's black and very blurry. No text shows in my taskbar, or any menus, I have no idea how to fix this.

    Any ideas?

    :)

    Dropdown Menu on Desktop

    I have been having problems with the desktop dropdown menu for over a week now. Have tried multiple solutions. Have no idea

    what to do about it. The specific problem I'm having doesn't seem to show up anywhere. When I log on, the dropdown menu just scatters various application icons all over the desktop. Help!!!!

    Please note: An expert did contact me via email. But what he said was just a little too "techie" for me. Would appreciate further help.

    Thanks much!

    Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.
