Sidebar gadgets as seen on the windows vista features site
If you look at this site (
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvist...e/sidebar.mspx ) you see a picture of a desktop and then also the sidebar. What I cant seem to figure out how to add to my sidebar is how they got the recycle bin there, that box with 4 icons (notepad, paint, a deck of cards and a post it block) or the email thingy with a number 9 on it. Can anyone please help me with how to get these things? |

if you have SIDE BAR running, right click on it and check for ADD Gadgets.
if sidebar is not running, then Start All Programs and click on Windows Sidebar. "Helge Ringberg" Helge wrote in message ...

I'm surprised that there isn't a gadget for Live messenger, I had one set up
in XP that worked really nice. Ray "Ronnie Vernon MVP" wrote in message ... You did not look hard enough. There are 144 Gadgets listed in the online gadget website.
