    Hi there

    Quick question for a change, is there a registry hack to get the windows key>u>u combo for shutdown in Vista like there is in XP Home?

    Thanks in advance for any advice/help :)

    Vista needs one more step than XP in this case. First use Windows Key+D to minimize all open windows and then use Alt+F4 and from there its like xp (s- Shutdown, R- Restart, etc)
