>Under XP, I just dragged the icon to the desktop and I think chose >"Create Shortcut >Here". You will find the SERVICES shortcut in the same place, but first click on your Taskbar... Properties.... Go to Programs.... Start Menu Tab.... Customize.... now put a mark under Control Panel = Display as a menu. Click OK and work your way back. Now when you go to Start >>> Control Panel it will appear as a menu, so go to Administrative tools, and you will find Services, just copy the shortcut to your desktop. You may have to run it as THE Administrator... you left click, and select Run as Administrator. NOTE: Be aware, that unlike XP, in Vista and Windows 7 there is a big difference between a user with Administrative Privileges and THE Administrator. In fact THE Administrative isn't actually enabled by default. To enable THE administrator go to Programs... Accessories... click on command window Run as Administrator ..now issue this command administrator /active:yes press enter and you will see a confirmation. Now go into Users and you will see THE Administrator.. give it a password. A password isn't required but I would give it one. When you boot up you will now have THE Administrator available to log in. Being the Administrator will make configuring windows a lot easier BUT it is a huge security risk to run as the administrator. > Are these effects available in Win 7? If so, how? yes, look under control panel >>> Ease of Access center as well as Mouse. Once you enable your Control Panel Menu things should look normal to you. m PCBUILD's List Owners: Bob Wright<[log in to unmask]> Mark Rode<[log in to unmask]>
