    Windows XP question

    A crappy workaround would be this. Place shorcuts to all your games in the quicklaunch toolbar. Then shrink your toolbar down to a manageable size. It the >> symbol on there. When you click the >> symbol it will be in a dropdown format.

    I have about 40 compaq deskpro 4000s still running. Users dont complain to much either, even though their neighbors have dell precision 690s. Its like 15x the processing power of the old deskpro 4000s.

    MB cleaning.

    I would not want any of those parts in my machine. 1. soap doesnt evaporate. So it will be on your board forever. 2. your board are probably has severe corrosion. It doesnt matter how good you dry it, you will still leave contaminates on your boards.

    MB cleaning.

    Distilled water is the only viable water that would not cause corrosion on your motherboard. But if its not properly stored it will also cause corrosion. If you use any water besides distilled water your severely shrinking the life of your board.

    MB cleaning.

    never use water to clean any circuit board. Your best bet would be alcohol. Get a lent free cloth and apply the alcohol directly to the cloth not the motherboard. Be very gentle!
