    Open task manager and take a look at the processes tab. Something's not quite right on your machine Dave.

It had a sporty bullet type sidecar the one with a large bar all the way around the cab. Apart from the BSA Shooting Star the best bike I ever had. Great combination to ride dragging it around rounder-bouts with the exhaust giving out that glorious mellow throaty sound very peculiar to a Thunderbird.

      Nice idea Steve.

        Yes, it is the start button.

              I use the desktop background to revolve around various photos I have taken down the years, currently it is using ones from this years Duxford show and currently has Sally B in close up. I had one of Sally B made into a mouse mat too.

                        Hi Laurie, It is a 1957 Thunderbird, the same year as me! According to some books I have read it is would actually appear to be a '58 model but registered in '57. Don't ask me how they managed that! ...............and you are right, the noise is beautiful when you ride it hard!

                        I sometimes use these as desktops as well!

                                Got to your desktop and then look on your keyboard for the PRT SC button, normally on the right hand side above the numeric keypad, press this once. Then use the mouse to paste in your post and there be your desktop piccie.
