Sorry I should have been a bit more clear.... I went back to XP from LInux because there were a couple features of my newest laptop that were not yet compatible with Linux. I am a Linux user, that does not mean I know how to write my own drivers, though it seems I am the only Linux user who can't lol....
As for the Thai issue (I assume that is what was doing it) I too have the problem with not only the progress bars being cut as the screenshot showed, but also the apply and ok all the bottom buttons in preferences not being visible. I scroll the screen down to see them, but a new user would not know they are supposed to be there. I thought maybe it is is my video driver, but it does it on the new laptop as well with ATI.
Edited: Sorry for the double post Lag .... Please delete the above.
Also I just uninstalled Limewire and installed the 5.5mb English version and my display issues are now gone, thanks for the tips.
