Windows Vista Start Menu & Control Panel
Most of the control panels, utilities and programs within Windows Vista (and most other Windows versions) are ac-
cessed from the Start menu. When you install programs and utilities they will be installed on your hard disk drive,
and a shortcut will usually be placed in the Start menu and/or the desktop. You can customize the look of the Start
menu by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Properties from the menu.

Figure 7 - Start Menu & Control Panel
In many instances throughout this manual you will see an instruction to open the Control Panel. The Control Panel
is accessed from the Start menu, and it allows you to configure the settings for most of the key features in Windows
(e.g. power, video, network, audio etc.). Windows Vista provides basic controls for many of the features, however
many new controls are added (or existing ones are enhanced) when you install the drivers provided. To see all controls
it may be necessary to toggle to Classic View on.
