When I tried to see what was in my start menu all I got was a very large whole in my monitor.

Here it is. I've got nero8,games,googleearth,etc. I stuck out my BEST game. Finally beat it yesterday. You might look at my theme sort of weird but the OS is called Windows XP Black Edition. Modified version of windows xp. My OS is Korean. hehe. :)

I don't see why it would and for the record I goggled that pic. I am surprised you have never seen that bootup screen before as its quite old.

So you use Blender, nice. What's the point of having Realplayer installed as opposed to Real Alternative (http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Real_alternative.htm)?

Realplayer takes over your PC, don't install it. And why do you only have indesign instead of the whole suit?

You know you can set permissions for programs. I have no problem with real player at all.

Adobe products are pretty expensive. I could not afford everything. Indesign was expensive as it is.

Thats nothing compared to my old pc. I had so much stuff installed it wouldnt even fit on the screen. Talk about not being able to find anything half the time i would take more time trying to find the shortcut than time i spent using the program. :lol:

Actually I have a little trick for that. Well not really a trick but I have created folders on the desktop to organize shortcuts. I have a game folder, apps etc. That way you can free up the start menu. I was the same way and the damn thing would go off the screen and I am sitting thinking....ok now what?

I got my Web Design Suit for $600 on Amazon. I know a friend who got the whole CS3 Suit for $100 on ebay.

Why not simply edit the start menu itself, and create those folders there as well? I can't stand my start menu expanding over one single column. I'm not a very tidy person, but when it comes to my PC I'm a total dictator :).
Well actually i don't really use the start menu to start programs anyway, i have all the shortcuts on my desktop.
