Go to Control Panel and choose 'System', then the 'Advanced' tab. Under Performance, click the 'Settings' button. Select the tab labelled 'Visual Effects' and click the radio button next to 'Custom' Scroll down the list until you find 'Use drop shadows for icon labels on the desktop' and tick it.
hope that works

Make sure you don't have any active desktop objects enabled, that's what changed it for me.
