I am converting the work stations on my network from WIN2K
Prof to XP PRO. I want to make the work environment look
as similar as I can (to minimize the number of calls to my
office) so that the users will feel comfortable in the new
OS environment. I have gone into the the group policey
editor and configured several things succesfully, but for
the life of me I cannot configure the system so that
the 'My Computer' icon shows on the desktop for each user
and any new users that log onto that system for the first
time. I want it to be set as a default to include the My
Computer icon on the desktop. I know it can be done. I
just have been unable to figure it out. In the Group
Policy settings for LocalComputerPolicy\User
Configuration\Administrative Templates\Desktop\"Remove My
Computer icon on the desktop"...I set this to disable
which tells the system to show the icon on the desktop.
Well, it still doesn't. Each user has to configure the
icon from the start pannel to show on desktop or through
the desktop cusomize feature.

Can you please assist me in this. Thank you very much.
