Outlook 2007 UI looks like windows 98 in XP?

[Andy]

Hi ya,

I was messing around with nVidia nView to try and get dual monitors working
when it looks like Outlook's GUI has been defaulted to some sort of
'safemode' look. A bit like when you boot up XP in safemode, everything looks
like windows 98, 256 colours, old icons etc. This is only happening to
Outlook, I have tried repairing the installation but no luck.

Does anyone know whats wrong or how to fix it?

Thanks,
Andy

Tried resetting you nView settings already?
It sounds like you've created an nView profile for outlook.exe
Additionally, verify that you don't have any compatibility settings applied
to the properties of outlook.exe

Hi ya,

I turned off nView because it has loads of issues and was messign with a lot
of applications. Outlook is the only one that hasn't reverted. I checked the
compatibility settings for outlook.exe and they are all normal.

Thanks,
Andy
