XP Xplosion!

CounterCW
Well, I was using Windows XP for a little while. . Then, I noticed that even when I shut down properly and booted up again, XP would say Windows needs to check this disk for consistency, and sure enough it would go about deleting some orphan files, etc.

Word XP Print View

CrazyKillerMan
This is very trivial, but annoying. Normally the background is greyish-brown. But for some reason its white now. This is getting hard on the eyes and I have looked (a bit) in WordXP's menus but, if anyone has been able to find this option.

sybor

Remote Desktop

CounterCW
Is it possible to have more than 1 person using the computer while using Remote Desktop? Like, I was thinking, allowing a friend of mine to use my computer while I was on it at the same time. I think that'd be pretty cool.
