If the Taskbar is behaving strangely, try exiting Multimedia background task support module. Module Name: mmtask.tsk Description: Multimedia background task support module Version: 4.90.3000 Product: Microsoft Windows Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation Any ideas how to fix this problem?

When I run Dr.Watson I see that same message as well, yet I haven't noticed any issues with the tasbar. This also shows up on a totatlly different computer, that also has Windows ME, so I think it is a standard message.

I get the same message from Dr. Watson. The taskbar is indeed behaving strange. Sometimes after start up , note, only sometimes, the hidden taskbar does not pop up when pointing at it. I have to click it open. And then it doesn't hide when removing the pointer, I have to click somewhere on the desktop to hide it. And the same problem with menus with the black arrow to the right, indicating there is a sub-menu. The sub-menu does not pop up when pointing to such a menu. I have to click it open. This regardless if it is a program menu (FILE, EDIT etc.) or a menu under START, for instance the PROGRAM menu, I have to click it open. How do I exit the Multimedia background task support module?

I have the same problem . I was allowed to use a new HP.Pavilion ... (a newer model) I did run Dr.Watson and the usual message came up ! If the task bar is behaving strangely ....(which it does ) try exting ...A new computer still in the shop!!!!!
