A nice article, recently showed up on Digg that reveals some of the features, or functionalities that Microsoft has kept relatively hidden in Windows. Here are the first 5:
1. Installer music
Start > Run > “C:\Windows\system32\oobe\images\title.wma” > Ok2. Hibernate
Start > Turn Off Computer… > press Shift key to change the “Stand By” button to “Hibernate”3. Hidden Devices
Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager > select “View” and Show hidden devices4. Character Map
Start > Run > “charmap.exe” > Ok5. Clipboard Viewer
Start > Run > “clipbrd.exe” > Ok
I always liked that installer music, it’s one of the very few pleasant things about reinstalling a Windows machine.
