I have been running 2000 Professional for years and just the other day
started loosing my taskbar intermittantly. I have to restart the computer to
get it back on the display. I can go into the task manager and retrieve
running applications but I can't access anything through the START menu. When
I started writing this I had no task bar, I left for awhile and my screen
went to screes saver, I wiggled the mouse and my screen came up, with the
task bas visible. What is causing this?????
 
Something consuming the cpu while auto-hidden?

Being only semi computer savy I'm not even sure what your reply means, Sorry.
I can be going back and forth between applications and email and I get
back to my desktop and the task bar is gone.
