Overview 
Based on an enhanced version of the Windows 2000 operating system, Windows XP is available in consumer and business editions: Windows XP Home Edition 
and Windows XP Professional. The features discussed are available in both editions, but the Professional version, designed for business environments, 
includes additional productivity, security, networking, and management features important in business environments. 
For home users, Windows XP brings the significantly increased stability and security inherent in the Windows 2000/Windows NT®operating systems. It also 
provides better support for portable computers. Key new Windows XP features include: 
l An improved desktop and user interface  
 
l Files and Settings Transfer Wizard  
 
l Application program compatibility enhancements  
 
l System Restore  
 
l Fast User Switching*  
 
l Expanded home and small office networking functions*  
 
l A personal firewall for always-on Internet connections*

Help and Support Center  
The Help and Support Center, introduced with Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition (Me), replaces Windows Help from earlier operating systems. The Help and 
Support Center provides an integrated resource center for information and assistance in using, configuring, and troubleshooting your computer and installed 
hardware devices and software. For Windows XP, the Help and Support Center features expanded search capabilities, including full-text search and the 
capability to search across multiple remote sites in addition to files resident on the hard drive. You can use a single print command to print an entire chapter of 
help content. 
To open Help and Support Center, click the Start button, and then click Help and Support. From the home page, you can conduct a search or select categories 
of information, leading to task and information topics covering the use of your computer. Click User and System GuidesforinformationonusingyourDell™
computer, including installed hardware devices and software. 
New User Interface 
Windows XP features a redesigned user interface with a new visual style, a less cluttered desktop, and built-in desktop cleanup features. Window layout has 
also been changed for Windows XP and, as in the Control Panel, emphasizes task presentation. The Start menu has been redesigned. The left half of the new 
Start menu includes the most frequently used icons. As you use your computer, the icons in this area are changed and rearranged depending on your 
computer usage patterns. If you wish to keep one of the icons permanently in its location, right-click the icon and click Pin to Start menu. 
To access all the programs installed on the computer, click All Programs at the bottom of the Start menu. The right half of the new Start menu contains useful 
icons for accessing your files, configuring the computer, and finding information and assistance. The Dell Solution Center icon opens a portal to services and 
application programs installed on your Dell computer. 
Switching to Classic View  
If you wish, you may change the appearance of the Start menu, desktop and windows, or Control Panel layout to that of earlier Windows operating systems. 
These classic view options are independent of each other. 
You can easily switch back and forth between the new Control Panel category view and the classic icon view by clicking Switch to Classic View or Switch to 
Category View in the upper left area of the Control Panel window. This can be handy if you would like to take advantage of the new, task-oriented features 
of the Windows XP Control Panel, but you are accustomed to performing a particular task with the icon-oriented classic Control Panel. 
To change the appearance of the Start menu to the classic view: 
1. Right-click the empty area on the task bar.  
 
2. Click Properties.  
 
3. Click the Start Menu tab.  
 
4. Select Classic Start Menu and click OK.
