Hi. Somehow after new installation of WinXP Pro SP2, many windows look like this on in image:

How to fix this problem?
DPI setting is set to normal, 96 dpi. Resolution is set to 1280x1024.
Thanks to all who will try to help :)

Have you tried setting the resolution down/up and seeing if that fixes the problem? Also, can you resize the window? If there's an option you really need, you can force the window to maximize by going into Task Manager, then under Tasks, right-click the application and select Maximize.

I tried to change resolution down and up again, but it doesn't fix the problem. So in many programs ''properties'' looks like this one, without some butons and other options. That is some windows issue, but I cannot fix it yet :(
Thank You, Seb32 for try.

Have you tried Accessibility? Maybe someone was playing around in there.

Try clicking defaults in the control panel
