What resolution is your screen set to? I know sometimes people have problems like that if they have low-res settings or if they have their favourites bar opened along the side of the screen instead of using the drop-down menu from the top (which takes up an inordinate amount of the viewing area of the screen).
Thanks Lee, did not think of that.
My own PC works fine but my works PC must have a different resolution as this is the machine I had problems with.
