SYMPTOMS
If you enter the Control Panel from My Computer, and you open any program in the Control Panel (for example, if you open "System") and then you click Up One Level in Microsoft Explorer to return to My Computer, the Explorer refreshes your complete desktop. At first your desktop is blank, and then all icons are repainted.
CAUSE
This behavior occurs if you have installed the "Matrox Millennium Tools," that are included with the Matrox Millennium display adapter. The Matrox Millennium Tools is located in the Control Panel as "MGA Display Properties."
WORKAROUND
To resolve this behavior, delete the Mgapanel.cpl file located in the %SYSTEMROOT%\system32-folder.
