hi everyone!
Are you tired of going to the control panel and accessing system properties there? Do you want to access the system properties dialog in a flash?
Fear no more, Windows+pause is in all windows version above 2000. Simply hit the windows+pause key, and in a snp, the system dialog wil open, allowing you to:
•view system properties.
•Change computer name.
•Change your paging file size.
•Celebrate the Windows version you have by constantly re-reading it with your screen reader and squealing after each read.
•and oh so much more!
To access this neat function, your keyboard must have a pause key. If using a laptop, this key is usually on the top right corner (upper corner) of your keyboard, next to scroll-lock. If using a netbook, it is usually an fn-key combination. Simply press every single key with the fn button to find it - don't worry, if you screw your netbook/laptop up, you can always reset the bios! :D!
Happy opening the system dialog!

been there since Windows 95.
you can also practice hitting your reset button after running regedit and pressing delete on the top item then do fdisk * y ... in other words be careful when using the FN button as you might turn off your sound, your display and other things; check your manufacturer's docs before
