Windows XP Tips and Tricks

Tip of the Day

Tip of the day:

(1)    If you want to capture a screenshot of your desktop or window, press Prt Scr (Print Screen)on your keyboard and a image of the desktop or window will be copied to the clipboard. You can access the image by pasting in whatever program you like that supports images (such as Microsoft Word, Paint, Frontpage, etc.)

(2)    If you want to search your desktop or laptop computer and are tired of endlessly searching for files using the builtin Windows Search utility, you can use both Google Desktop Search and MSN Desktop Search. Combined, these two tools are the best in the business, they will allow you to search for nearly any file quickly without consuming much time.  Google Desktop Search integrates well with the web interface, and MSN Desktop Search integrates well with Windows.  Simply put, there are no better ways of searching and finding files instantly. Their respective websites are http://desktop.google.com/ and http://toolbar.msn.com/ .
