error when shut down

when i shut down my computer and try to log back on later my background is gray and the taskbar and icons do not show up. I got the task manager to pop up and it shows 100 - 150 processes when i usually only have 15 - 20.

STATUS : WB+ SRV+ HLP+ UI+ TRAY+

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC.

Your machine does not support per pixel borders on WindowBlinds skins.

This is because :

Your computer is currently in 16 or 24 bit colour mode and WindowBlinds needs to be in 32 bit colour mode to use per pixel borders. Please adjust the colour depth of your display to 32 bit colour. If this is not an option, then you may want to see if you can obtain new drivers for your graphics hardware.

You have one monitor in total.

i took this information report before the error occoured and also before i changed my display to 32 bit. I only have the trial version if that makes any difference.

the profile is in 32 bit. i said that because it changed the outcome of the info. report and wasn't sure if it could cause any errors. i took the information report as soon as i installed wb on friday and changed to 32 after.
