I go to Display properties in control panel, click on apperance, click effects, and the effect "show window contents while dragging" is always disabled when I restart. I have the I8600 with the Hitatchi WSXGA+ panel, and this happens to every other person I have spoke to who has the same LCD and who hasn't reinstalled the OS. Thanks in advance.

I think you need to re-enable yourself by logging in as the Administrator and changing the registry for all users.

Then Login as yourself and Do the same.


Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"DragFullWindows"="1"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows]
"SecureDesktop"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"NoVisualStyleChoice"=dword:00000000
"NoColorChoice"=dword:00000000
"NoSizeChoice"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"SetVisualStyle"=-

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ThemeManager]
"ThemeActive"="1"
"DllName"=hex(2):25,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,52,00,6f,00,6f,00,\
74,00,25,00,5c,00,72,00,65,00,73,00,6f,00,75,00,72,00,63,00,65,00,73,00,5c,\
00,54,00,68,00,65,00,6d,00,65,00,73,00,5c,00,6c,00,75,00,6e,00,61,00,5c,00,\
6c,00,75,00,6e,00,61,00,2e,00,6d,00,73,00,73,00,74,00,79,00,6c,00,65,00,73,\
00,00,00
"ColorName"="NormalColor"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoSaveSettings"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"ClassicShell"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"ClassicShell"=dword:00000000



Then to make this change, right-click the Desktop and choose Properties. In the Display Properties window that appears, click the Appearance tab, and the Effects button. Clear the check box (click) next to "Show window contents while dragging." Click OK and OK to make the change take effect. Now when you drag a window to another part of the screen, only the outline will move until you drop it.


Does that fix the problem?

I was just about to try those registry keys, but I'm not sure if you know that I realy want the effect enabled. I think those keys will do the opposite, right?
