in Vista, I lost my "Recycling Bin" icon on the Desktop, how can I recover it?

Your help would be very much appreciated.\
Charles.
 
right click the desktop, properties, and on the left hand side there is a 'Change desktop icons' in there you can add the recyle bin again... you can just delete this icon off the desktop (i found out myself)
 
This website has the best explanations and walkthroughs out of anything online.

I do follow this rule of thumb that has saved my bacon time after time:
One Operating system per hard drive

I use Bootit NG as my boot manager. I do not use any of the windows native boot managers at all. The nice thing about Bootit NG is if you pull the boot drive...the alternate drive that first in the BIOS will boot as normal

I also use virtual drives ...lol but that is another topic

anyways with a good third party boot manager you can pretty much run anything you want on the other drives and are not limited to windows or linux


Just to note, I find OS's sharing a drive there at times one gets a big olé headache
