When I click 'show graphics' a new window opens minimized. When I click on it on the taks bar nothing happens and it won't show. Is this a know bug?

This should normally work as you are using XP Home.
What is important is to know if you can use OpenGl or not because the graphics need it.

Instead of "left clicking" the item on the task bar,
try "right clicking" and then select "restore".

Open GL is enabled. But all see is a floating B on the screen and a message that scrolls at the top. 'App can't display graphics, BOINC suspended'

The screensaver of Boinc/S@H can only give you something to see if the program is processing a WU.
The message you have is BOINC suspended. This means the processing of WU is suspended. The only thing you need to do is making the program start over again processing of a WU.
