    Hey Guys, just installed Safari on Win XP and I can't find this 'Top Site's' gizmo anywhere. Any ideas?

    On the mac it's under preferences -> general. With options to open new windows and tabs showing your "Top Sites".

    No Joy - I can open with Home Page, Empty Page, Same Page, or Bookmarks. I've tried them all, just in case, with no result...

    It's not a big thing, but I'm curious to see it! :)

    I know, it's weird - I googled it, tried all suggestions, checked my version of directX, the works. I'm starting to obsess a little about it now! :D

    Just said I'd post it up here in case any other Win XP user had the same issue. Strange.

    Not trying to be facetious, but you have definitely installed safari 4 and overwritten any earlier versions?

    Otherwise, I found this old article, from when safari 4 was still in beta, that suggests it may be related to your graphics card http://news.softpedia.com/news/Safari-4-New-Features-Require-Stuff-105298.shtml

    It's the first install, so no worries there. And I'm running DirectX 9. I'm installing a new graphics card over the weekend though, so maybe everything will light up then!
