I just bought xp pro and installed it on my laptop. I got
the basic version sold to students on campus. When I go
to the my pictures folder it does not have the tool bars
on the left side with items like "copy to cd" and "view
pictures as slideshow". The slideshow option was one of
the primary reasons I upgraded to xp, but this option is
not there, or I just don't know how to view it. I was
wondering if this is something that is just on the home
version, since that is what I have on my desktop, and I
can view those options on that one. Is this an option or
upgrade that I can install? Any help would be great.

Easy to fix, just change the view.
Look at the top bar, you will see a yellow icon, Folders.
Click on it. This will change the view from Folders to Tasks. You should now
see what you want under Picture Tasks on the left.
 
After a post above, see if this would work.
Open My Computer, click on Tools on the top bar.
Click on folder options. Check Show common tasks in folders.
Now open a picture folder.
The Tasks should be on the left. If not click on the yellow icon Folders on
the top bar to change the view from Folders to Tasks.
