iPaq 4150 display woes

My iPaq 4150 has developed a problem with the display. There are some windows which are only partly displayed on the screen, i.e. some text or buttons at the top or bottom are "chopped off". This is particularly the case for the Bluetoot Manager & I cannot see the "finish" button. I already did a search & established that other people also have this problem but cannot find a cure. I did a hard reset which cured the problem but only temporarily. I suspected that Omega Batterypack might be the culprit but uninstalling it has not helped. My display fonts are the standard ones. Any ideas anyone?

By the time I get this baby working properly I think I'll be able to write a book about it.

Have you installed or performed any registry hacks? I knew of one which changed the font that in turn knocked the screen allignements off.

Thanks Charlie, you were bang on. A program (Omega Batterypack I'm sure) had changed the system font for some windows - changing it back again has cured the problem. Thanks for your help.

Hi
Thanks - confirms my suspicion - have had numerous soft resets and similar 'cut screens' since i installed Batterypack. Why cant they make a stable program ?? its otherwise quite a useful piece of software - when you're not rebooting, putting it back on the today screen, 'ok', 'x', 'ok' 'x' etc etc to get back to today screen .......
