"Every time I click on my programs button, I have an error message saying there are too many items to show all of them etc. that I should delete some . . . I've deleted all I can bear to delete! "

It's a simple setting:

R-click on the Taskbar, select Properties; select the Start Menu tab; choose Customize; in the middle box you will see it says "Number of programs on the Start menu" with a number field next to it. Lower the number until you no longer receive the error message.

The warning just means your screen resolution/icon size is too large for the selected number of icons to be shown in the Start menu.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CIGAR.

IT'S *NOT* about the START program. It's about the list of programs, software packages etc.

How can I enlarge that capacity?

BTW, EVEN THOUGH the start program was not the problem, I still did what you said--no effect.

IT'S about the list of all the software programs I have on my computer that comes up when I click "PROGRAMS."
