If you have vista:

go to the start menu, look on the left collum, drag the word computer to your desktop.

I dont remember how to do it on xp, but if you can find it (in the sart menu i think) and drag it on the desktop. It will on;y make a copy so you don't have to worry about only having it in one spot. All you have to do is drag it when you find it.





Hope this helps
