Windows Sidebar Gadgets not working?

When I start the sidebar it used to be fine. Now when I put an application
in, it dosn't show up. For example, I will put in the calandar that came with
the sidebar already, but then it will be a small rectangular block. All my
other apps are the same way. Just invisible stuff. Any help on this? Thansk.
I can take screen pictures if you want me to send them.

Rightclick a Command Prompt icon, and 'run as administrator'. Type the
command:

regsvr32 vbscript

Use the "Ratings" feature. It helps the new users.
