I just got around to upgrading Windows XP with the SP2 CD. Everything went OK with the exception of my task bar. I used to have a 3 level hidden task bar, but now it is only one level and cannot be expanded to anymore than that. I would like to have the 3 levels back but do not know how that can be done. Any help will greatly be appreciated.
