There are many features in Windows XP that may be familiar to those conversant with Windows NT/2000 systems but which will be foreign territory to those used to the 9X/Me family. One area with a number of new concepts is in the management of hard disks. In particular, use of the file system NTFS allows for a new array of tools and actions. Also, there is the new concept of “dynamic disks.” In this article, we will discuss some of these new aspects. On this page we look at the right-click context menu and the Properties Sheet. Business - List of business/finance/loan/mortgage resources Computers - List of computer hardware/software/peripheral resources Internet - List of webhosting/webdesign/internet marketing resources Software - List of software resources Web Design - List of web design/development resources Web Hosting - List of web hosting resources Web Promotion - List of search engine optimization/internet marketing resources Web Resources - List of other web resources Recreation - List of travel/hotel/cruise resources Casino - List of online gambling/poker/blackjack/roulette resources Health - List of online pharmacy/hospital/health resources Shopping - List of online shopping/gift resources Miscellaneous - List of all other resources not stated above
Many of the actions and properties for hard disks can be reached by going to "My Computer" and right-clicking on the icon for a drive of interest. This opens a context menu as illustrated in Figure 1. Among the entries is "Format", which may on occasion be of concern, but most often the "Properties" entry will be where one is interested. |
