    I run a dual screen set-up. Thats why it looks like the windows bar(?) is in the middle, its actually on the left side of my right monitor. Left is 22inch @1680x1050, right is a 19inch @1600x1200. Icons are messy, I clean it up once a month or so, if I get to it.

    The "print screen" button seems to be dead on my keyboard. Is there another way....?

    If you're trying to capture images on the screen using the print screen button and it is not working, you may want to try a third-party program to capture images; a listing of these programs can be found on our screen shot definition page.

    I hope this helps.

    Hey...I did it!





    I was never able to get my "prt scrn" button to work either.

    Big Thanks to Kodiak for the link, I downloaded the "screenshot utility" program from the list on that site & BINGO...here's my incredibly cluttered desktop for all the world to see.

    Kodiak, thanks!
    Now Iv'e learned to put images in my gallery so I will be able to post full size pix in posts.
    This is a phot of Snowtrooper Jr. from about two years ago. I figure I will have no problem getting him to do stuff, lest this photo make it into the hands of his friends




    Best,
    James

    Thanks Bart, I'd appreciate that.

    As far as "wheelie-ing around Moab"...I'll see what I can do, but no guarantees.

    To remove the arrows with XP-
    Start menu>Run>Type Regedit>Expand HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT>Scroll down to
    folder called LNKFILE>Single click on the folder>In the right pane right click on
    IsShortcut and click delete.

    To change the icon with XP-
    Right click on the icon>Properties>Shortcut>Change icon.

    Ya can create your own custom icon like I did for my VX Documents folder.

    I do NOT have a single folder or window, on my desktop.
    I do have tons of custom icons and custom menu's.
    My computer screen is CLEAN, but my desk's top is cluttered
