Tip of the day

For quick access to your computer files, add the computer icon to your desktop.

In Windows Vista, you can do this by right clicking on the desktop and clicking on Personalize. Then, click on the link in the upper left hand corner that says Change Desktop Icon.

In Windows XP, you can right click on the desktop and click on preferences. Select the Desktop tab, and click on the button that says Customize Desktop.

In both cases, mark the icons that you wish to have on the desktop, such as the one that says Computer. Click on OK, and close the other dialog boxes you open, and you should see the computer icon on the desktop.
