| | Classic Start Menu playing up Hi Just today, my start menu on Vista Ultimate has been playing up. It was working when I turned the computer on, earlier in the morning, but now its playing up. I have it set to classic mode as I prefer it over XP mode. What happens is that I can click on the Start Icon to bring up the Start menu but if I click on anything in the menu, the start menu closes. However, if I hover the mouse over a menu (Eg Programs) it opens the menu properly but a click closes it. Additionally, to select a program from the start menu, clicking closes the menu but if I hover the mouse over it and press ENTER on the keyboard it works. Lastly, if I switch it over to the XP start menu the mouse responds properly. Please help |

If I log out and then back in, the clicks resume. I'm going to keep trying to pay attention to figure out what could be causing it... |
