So had my work PC rebuilt and it now has Windows 7
First problem: the icons in the taskbar wider than a pregnant hippo.
How can I narrow them? I'm already using "small icons"
I hate this POS. Give me XP back any day!!!!!

Adjust your resolution. My tray icons are very small.
Windows 7 is very good actually. I loved Windows XP, but there's nothing wrong with Win 7 once you work through it.

You're not wrong there. The icons ARE smaller but distance between them is still too large, kinda stupid reallyMushy Mushy wrote:done that and they're still a cm wide when the actual icon image is half that.dalor wrote:Right mouseclick on empty spot in the Taskbar > Properties > (new menu) > Taskbar > Use small icons (tick).

Why is there a massive f*cking windows logo in the top right corner?
I know I'm using windows because I logged into it myself.
