    Re-Order Icons in the "This PC" sidebar


    The subject pretty much asks it all, there are some of the "This PC" folders that I use more than others and I'd like to move them to the top for easier and faster access. How do I do this?

    :)

  3. Vista sidebar gadgets for overclockers?

    Yeah I know where it's supposed to be but for some reason it's not there now...

    Someone mentioned Everest having a sidebar feature, and I found it in the options... looks like it has a good amount of readings you can select for it to display, but even when I check "show sidebar" or whatever the box is, it doesn't show up or list it in my gadgets list...
