Right click the Start button, select Properties, Customize. Check Scroll
Programs.

Otherwise, right click the Start button, select Explore or Explore All Users
and re-arrange your Programs sub-folders so they don't take up so much room.

Go to your Documents and Settings folder, then ALL Users folder, and then
open the START MENU.. create folders here such that you can categorise your
programs.. e.g. Graphics, Office, Multimedia.. open up a second window that
mirrors the first one and resize both so that they can be easily seen.. in
one of the windows, open up the PROGRAMS folder.. now you can just drag and
drop program types into your new categorized folders..

I'm having a problem that when I click my Start button,
then point at or click the "All Programs" button, it
doesn't open any more as it should. Any ideas on what has
gone wrong, and how I fix it please?? Thanks. Larry
