jimmy89 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2007 What is your colour quality? When my monitor is set on low (16 bit) i get white edges around the icons, but on higher (32 bit) its better!hopefully this helps-jimmy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wutske 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2007 the icons are just in bad quality. The white border you see should normaly be (semi-)transparent. It's also possible that windows can't handle the alpha-channel correctly, but that's the fault of the iconproducer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saint_Michael 3 Report post Posted July 2, 2007 It could be that the graphics card is damaged as well and whatever is supposed to be transparent is showing up as white; of course nothing showed up in searching for a reason as to why this would happen. However as I am looking at the desktop it almost seems your not even using XP OS but an older version, because those folder Icons are not the standard ones unless you changed them. If thats the case a suggestion would be to replace the icons or do a fresh installation of your Operating system. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
