fqpissed Start Menu

When I click on START, and click on a program, the sub menu(s) do not 'automically' pop-up like it did before.
I think I might have 'turned it off'. But I'm not sure how I did it.
I did download a few new programs....like StyleXP and Lodor (to customize my logon to my home computer).
I went through the setting in these programs......but it did't clear this problem up......................

Help,
garyst

I don't see that option where you say it is. I know that it is the registry though. But I'm not sure that is garyst's problem. Personalized menus shows only the most used programs in the programs menu, and I think he is saying that moving the mouse over any submenu doesn't pop it up, and he has to click it.

Right Click on the Start menu button, select properties, click on the customize button, select the :advanced" tab, then select "Open submenus when I pause on them with my mouse"

What I finally had to do, was....go into the Registry............
and edit the "Menu Delay" key, under the "desktop" key.
It seems to work.....but I think one of my 'running' programs is, somehow, slowing it back down.......so I repeat the process over again.
