I upgraded my OS to Windows XP Pro from Win2k Pro a few days ago. It's very cool. The only thing I don't like is when I click on a hard drive on the "My Computer" screen, it doesn't show a pie chart at the left showing the amount of used/free space.

Is there a way to make it show a pie chart?
 
If you go into My Computer, right click on one of the drives and click Properties, you can see a pie chart for that drive, showing how much of its space is free and how much is used. But how about seeing multiple drives? Who wants to right click and click Properties on ten drives? Try this instead:

Click Start and then click on My Computer.
Click on your C: drive. Now, hold down the CTRL key on the keyboard and click on the the other drives. For example, if you have a C:, an E:, an F: and a G: drive, click on the C: drive, hold down the CTRL key, and then click on the C:, E: F: and G: drives. Now let go of the CTRL key. All of drives should be highlighted. Right click on one of the drives and click the Properties command.
The properties dialog box will now show several tabs, one tab for each drive. Now you can just click on a tab instead of having to repeat that right click operation over and over. Cool!
