I have Windows XP Home. I recently installed a new PCI 32
Video Card, after installation and rebooting the Task Bar
disappeared. Any tips in how to fix this problem?

Thank you!
 
Bring your mouse to the bottom of the screen. Press and
hold the left mouse button whilst dragging up. Hopefully
your taskbar is now visible. Or push the "Windows" key, to
the left of the space bar, now right mouse anywhere on
taskbar and select properties. Select or deselect the
relevant check boxes. Hope this helps.

Regards,

Marty

In case this did not answer or someone else has the same problem. I had this same problem and it was not as easy as grabbing the bar. I had installed a new video card and my task bar disappeared. The problem was in the video set up I was showing both adapters the onboard and newly installed card. I had accidentally checked the box to extend desktop on my secondary monitor. I removed the X and everything is working fine.

Right click on your desktop, properties, settings. Check the settings there.
