Displaying Icons and Text in Windows 7 Taskbar
The new Windows 7 taskbar looks and behaves differently than the taskbars on previous verstions of the Windows 
Operating System. One of those changes is the icon only display in the Windows 7 taskbar.
All open programs will be shown with their icons only. Various users might prefer the old way of displaying items in the Windows taskbar instead.
It`s possible to change the display of the Windows 7 Taskbar items so that they display both icons and text instead.
Follow these few steps:
Right click empty space in the Windows 7 Taskbar, select Properties from the Options. Locate the Taskbar Buttons entry and change the dropdown menu on the right from Always Combine, hide labels to Never Combine and press OK to apply the changes.
From then on icons and text will be displayed in the Windows 7 Taskbar.
