You probably mean your task bar... you can't see the system tray...Primary system specs:

No, the system tray. He means the area where the clock and the little icons show up.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.Comment

correct, the little area right of your taskbar where you see the clock and the icons, which is what i wanna change the color of. This seems to be fine in winME but not in 95/98<font size="1">Gigabyte GA-6VXC7-4X MoBo

I don't think its possible.....If there's artificial intelligence, there's bound to be some artificial stupidity.

Yup it is possible. You just have to change something in explorer.exe and then it will display 256 colors in tray instead of 16. I have a patch for Windows 2000 SP1 and forgot where i got it. Try with Google or something to search for 256 color tray patch.Live long and prosper!Comment

I compared original explorer.exe and patched explorer.exe from windows 2000 SP1 and 4 bytes are different: range from 7505 (0x1d51) to 7508 (0x1d54).
Original: ff 74 24 18
Patched: 6a 11 90 90
Hope that helps.Live long and prosper!Comment
