Laptop help!!!!!
I have a DELL Inspiron 1525 about 2 months old with vista basic OS. For some reason on my desktop a white square appears after the laptop has been on for a few minutes and it will notgo away, I can not get it off of the desk top. It seems to me that it is above the desktop if you will, if I highlight with the curser the blue goes behind the white square.
Please someone help me get rid of this.......

Try going to the Display settings in the Control Panel ---> Desktop tab-->Customize Desktop-->Web tab-->uncheck "My current home page" AND "lock desktop items".

Re: Laptop help!!!!!
If you have Vista Home Basic, I don't think you are eligible for the upgrade...if that's the case, buy the Windows 7 Upgrade (Home Premium or better) anyways. It's a much better experience than Vista.
