Windows Tips & Tricks

If you want to prevent a CD from Autorun, hold down the 'Shift' key when you insert it into the CD-ROM drive.

By default clicking the button shutdowns your PC. However you could change it to log off/restart/sleep/shut down instead if you want to. Just right click on the button and choose 'Properties'. In the next window you may make your choice under 'Power button action'.
