there are also the keys that flip the screen if you have intel graphics card
Intel needs to quit making graphics cards, they all suck.

when you want a card that is exactly enough to run smoothly the desktop 3d effects in linux and does not kill watts like incandescent lamp - intel is the way writing from pc with intel onboard card

My absolute favorite is Winkey+M. It minimizes all windows, so if you are playing a full screen game but want to check 'ibles or AIM real fast, you can just hit Win+M and come right back. This also helps with games with nag screens. I just winM them and then rightclick close.

im linux user and dont know much windows tricks - sorry for providing mostly linux-only tricks internet explorer and konqueror (and probably all surfboards in all systems) : F6 to type into address bar all systems : many things can be done with the moue wheel without clicks. try it on dropdown boxes / tabs in surfboard / the speaker icon in the taskbar / the line size thing in paint / much more windows : hold shift to prevent automatic startp of inserted cdrom (alter 2 shifts to avoid the accessibility settings window) internet surfboards and other apps : select different amount of text by double / triple / quad click linux : alt ctrl F12 - in kde 4 (linux) switches off desktop effects (computer works faster) linux : right click on the maximize button of window sretches it in width only and keeps height. click with mouse wheel - the opposite linux : alt + drag point in the window (any point) to move window. use right button to resize linux : select text with mouse - copy (no other operation required) linux : mouse wheel click - paste all systems : tab in cmd autocompletes commands bios : alt ctrl esc - on certain types of phoenixbios bypasses the password bios : alt F12 / ctrl F12 - access to boot devices without password
