Hi, just installed XP and have a couple of questions...
I was wondering if it is possible to simply disable user accounts on Windows XP.
Also, when i installed video drivers it change my resolution to the correct one. Now everythings seems smaller and the screen seems bigger, eg. my recycle bin, which was in the bottem right corner, is now in the middle of the screen. Is this normal?
And one more thing, i have a 500gig harddrive, and properties in my computer show that it has a capacity of only 465 gig. iS this normal?
Thanks heaps.
Thanks

You can either password protect or delete accounts in Control Panel, User Account. Normal for icons to be smaller once you set the correct resolution. If you want to rearrange you desktop icons, right click on your Desk Top and got to Arrange Icons. Regardless of how you do it, it will line up the icons on the left hand side of the Desk Top. You can also arrange them manually by dragging them.
