Does the whole bar disapear, or just the start menu? Does it come back after a restart? What happens if you refresh the desktop? I know some games that run in a funky resolution, or some old DOS games will do things like that. I don't really have an answer for you, but in games that have done that to me in the past, if I couldn't get it fixed, a restart would usually do it.

Ahh, I think ones a "stale donut" After 3 years or so, I don't think the original poster is too worried anymore. What do you think!
