Just learned something new today, Thought I might pass it on.

How to label the icons on the desktop with no letters.

Right click an Icon on your desktop and click rename, then hold down the ALT key and press 2 5 5

Makes for nice clean Desktop :D

Another that we learned at work wuite some time ago (6 years maybe) Windows key and M will minimize everything on your desktop

Anyone have anything else that noone really knows about?
 
Worked on all mine

Let me ask the windows xp expert a question. Why does my xp start turning on and off on it's own?
Then after it does this i have to keep restoreing the xp back to it original state just so i can use the comp.

You mean your computer keeps restarting on its own?

yes it will probaly act up here in a min :beatentodeath:
I wonder what is the problem?

You think it may have a virus?
