    I know this isnt as important as some of the other questions, but i have asked before and didnt solve the problem. The problem is that when i went to "My Computer" it used to look a little like this like this:

    http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/sampchap/5207/0735613834-08.gif

    ... Saying "Hard Disk Drives" in bold and underlined then a picture underneath, and the same with others. But now, when i goto "My Computer" there is no writing in blod or lines underneath, just little icons of the drives (like on your desktop size), folders etc. How do i get it to how it was before? (i'd include a pic but i dont know how...)

    Also, what is this "SP1" i've been hearing a bit about?

    For XP,the current service pack is SP1. SP2 is in the advanced stages of testing since they have RC1 (release canidate 1) available for any who want to play with it and RC2 is expected shortly. Probably a full release of SP2 by the end of the year.

    It is a big one and mainly security-enhancement driven.
