Click the Views Tab at the top and select Tiles and i think it's because the icons are big keep them small
OFF TOPIC: Where did you get that sidebar from?

Search for Windows Sidebar or something and it should come up.

Yeah, it looks fine on Details, Tiles, and List modes. But not any otheres.

BUT! it's only my documents folder. No other folder has this problem.

Plus if you don't have sidebar; then you must be running vista basic.

I might just be like that? Might be part of the update?

Also, yeah this is the right section.

The only real solution to avoid the rath of Vista is to upgrade to XP :D!

its "wrath". maybe if XP was so great then it'd have an automatic spell checker built into the whole OS.

and @ thread starter, if the problem persists you can use system restore to restore back to before you installed the update, its helped me a few times.

You really don't like Vista do you :P There's no problems with it, for me at least. XP sucks compared to Vista, but that's my opinion :)

Go to task manager and creat new task called sidebar.exe

And I respect your opinion. Though, the reasons I have for preferring XP are legitimate.

it's "it's" :rolleyes:...When you begin pointing out spelling errors it shows weakness in the argument ;)

Personal preference. Nothing more really:P.

Use your own advice:

by the way you shouldn't buy an operating system based on whether or not it has spell check. That's just pure idiocy;)!
