"Show window preview" greyed-out in Taskbar appearance menu

Somehow, the ability to show window preview in the taskbar disappeared. When
I go to the "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties", the option for "Show Menu
Preview" is unchecked and greyed-out. Aero menus are operating correctly.
Any ideas how to turn on the "Show window preview"?

It would help if you give us the version of Vista that you are running ... e.g. Windows Vista Home Premium; Windows Vista Home Basic; Windows Business etc.

When I upgraded to Ultimate, the problem went away. Probably something did
not install properly originally.
