February 1, 200521 yr I have searched for these tweaks, but cannot find them anywhere.I need to have the MY COMPUTER and MY DOCUMENTS icons shown by default on the desktop (when using new start menu).I would also like to move MY DOCUMENTS to another drive (D:\My Documents). I know I have seen this before, but I could not find it when searching for it.Any help would be appreciated, and remember I DID search, but couldn't find the answers!
