I'm not sure if you can change the color of the taskbar alone, but you change it by changing the color scheme. RIGHT-CLICK on your DESKTOP%26gt;%26gt;PORPERTIES%26gt;%26gt;APPEARANCE.
Right Click anywhere on the desktop (not on an icon), and to go the Appearance Tab. You can choose a style from there, or customise it to the colours you like.
- Right Click on the DESKTOP. Do not click on any icon when doing this.



- A window will appear and you'll Select PROPERTIES.



- A window will appear entitled %26quot;Display Properties%26quot;.



- Towards the top of this window are categories or Tabs. One of these Tabs is labelled %26quot;Appearance%26quot;.



- Click on APPEARANCE. Under this tab, you'll see the category entitled %26quot;Color Scheme%26quot;. Under that category you can change your colors.



- If you want to get really creative, click on the ADVANCED button and select your own colors for various things displayed in Windows XP.
Click the Start button on the bottom left corner of the screen, find %26quot;Control Panel%26quot; and click on it. This will open up a window, and from there click on the category that says %26quot;Appearance and Themes.%26quot; You can go to any of the options, because they all lead to the same window. Once you get to that window (it will say %26quot;Display Properties%26quot; at the top), click on the tab that says %26quot;Appearance.%26quot; There will be a drop-down arrow box that says %26quot;Color Scheme.%26quot; Click down on the arrow and pick the color you want your task bar: silver, olive green, or default blue. It's actually really simple. Good luck!
