Do you know what EDITION of Win7 is on the netbook? Win7 Home Basic is missing quite a few features; and at one point I heard talk of a netbook version that had even fewer features (but I don’t know if that happened or not).

She said that she gets an error message when she uses a right-click and “send to desktop (create shortcut)”. The error message is something like “Cannot create shortcut. Your disk may be full.” Would the “view→ show desktop icons” fix this?

Any idea what the problem might be? It’s a Lenovo netbook, if it makes any difference. I checked it out, and installed Vipre Home on it for her, but other than that, I really didn’t do anything and I didn’t try putting any shortcuts on the desktop.
