Shrink the Start Menu Icons
95/98/ME/XP/NT/2000
The "Start" menu is defaulted to display the "Windows" logo next to large icons of the main subgroups - "Programs," "Settings," "Find," and others. If you would rather not see the logo every time you click the Start menu, or if you'd rather see the icons smaller, then follow these steps:

First, right-click the taskbar in an empty spot (between the running programs and the small tray icons). Select "Properties" from the cascading menu that appears. On the multi-tabbed dialog box that next appears, check the option "Show small icons in Start menu" by clicking it. Press "OK" to close the dialog box.

A little about At Home Tech.....

At Home Tech started out in 1994 with a pioneering group of computer gamers. Chris, Ken, Kevin, Mike and several other local friends started a gaming group called “The Pacific Northwest Descent League”. We built our first website for the league in early 1995 before most people knew what a website was. From the league we took part in several large gaming festivals “LAN Fests” hosting the first official organized Descent LAN at Ken’s House in Hillsboro Oregon. Being competitive gamers meant we had to have top notch equipment and excellent networking and troubleshooting skills.

By the time most of the gaming had stopped and The Pacific Northwest Descent League finally disbanded, Mike became a Network System Administrator for PGE, Chris became a Software Engineer for Intel, Kevin started a successful DOT COM and Ken started the growing IT Service Firm At Home Tech.

From 1997 to 1998 At Home Tech did only small side jobs for family and close friends. Over the years however, word of mouth has grown At Home Tech to what it is today. We have picked up several small business clients along the way, and most came to us very dissatisfied with there old IT/TECH help. Clients like these really need special attention and someone qualified to share wisdom and take care of all their TECH related needs. At Home Tech has what it takes to get the job done.

In the future At Home Tech plans to be a global force in the IT Business with plans to open offices in Seattle WA, Atlanta GA, Boise ID, and South Florida.
