SE Start Menu Question

07-02-04, 05:31 PM

Asus has not yet released their free SE upgrade for the A716, so I haven't tried SE yet. My question is that on the screenshots of SE the new start menu doesn't include Help or Find, unlike WM2003. So can any of you X30 owners help me out and tell me where it went to? Thanks! :D

They are located in "Programs" You can add them to the start menu if you wish.

Also something i dont like about SE is the u can onmly add 7 items, i think the reason for this is the landscape mode it fit perfect, but i dont like it. and SE has mad problems with Programs. they do work but most of the programs i have work funny

I'm not sure this will be true for SE, but in previous versions you could add more than the limit (9, I believe on PPC02 and WM03) by copying or moving shortcuts into the \Windows\Start Menu\ folder using a file explorer (rather than selecting them in Start, Settings, Menu). When you add more than the 'allowed' number, it adds an arrow to scroll to the additional programs.

If you try this, post back whether it is successful or not so others will know.

Would it not let you copy a file into the start menu once you've had 7 items already?

when i copied it there and then opened the start menu, it removed the file i had copied and the start menu stayed the same..
