Just so you know....Windows 95, NT, 2k, and ME all look like that too.

And you can tell by the windows logo on the start button, it is different in XP

edit: here is mine

you can do th same thing in XP.

Yea, mine's Xp, I just prefer classic mode, it's cleaner, more productive, responsive, and gets what I want done better.

I think he resized that picture.

Just found a nice Crysis wallpaper, I still have to organize everything on my desktop though:

I don't think he resized it, the proportions of the bars and sizes of icons and such dont look resized, judging by being able to get only about 3 across, and some people do prefer lower resolutions, I know someone who used 640x480 until Xp.

any higher makes it looked tiny and far away...it is at 800x600 right now though..

and I don't have an X2 btw lol..but yeah I think my monitor just makes that retarded..im fine with how it looks though..looks like what im used to

edit: adjusted monitor buttons so now I'm in 1024 x 768

I think that's enough for this dinky monitor

Don't you think that's a bit messy? And how does your computer perform in Battlefield 2?
