When I set the "show window contents while dragging" option, it gets
wiped away when I reboot and I have to set it again. Is there a way
to make sure this value is preserved when I reboot? I have XP Pro.

Just as a reminder, the setting is made in "Control Panel -> System ->
Advanced -> Performance - Settings -> Visual Effects -> Custom."

Thanks!

This is a Dell issue and it's their software. Dell Media something.

David,

Dell Media Experience.

But is it really a defective nVidea graphics driver causing "Dell's issue"?
