I've just found this..... http://kanebt.wordpress.com/kanebt-taskbar-start-menu-remover/

It might save a bit of head scratching, used with the no right had click hack as previously mentioned and a custom windows start screen I think I'll be almost there.

Thanks again for the help, and I hope that others may find this thread usefull.

Hello Hood,

Thanks for your swift reply....

Yes I already have Mach in the start up folder, the problem is people can still 'mess' with the windows setup. I can't believe that no one has wanted to do this before? I seems such a shame to have this great bit of software that really can't be let loose on the idiots down on the shop floor because of them 'tinkering' with the fundamental setup of the PC.

I've try windows blinds but it really isn't quite the answer, as you can still get to bits of windows.

Hello there,

I've had a good look through the forum, but can't find the answer to this question....

Is it possible to start windows (xp) and boot straight into Mach? Also can the title bar be hidden? We want to retro fit a machine with Mach but don't want the users of the machine to mess around with windows. In an ideal world, the machine would be turned on and the first screen to be displayed would be the Mach screen.... Does that make sense?

All the best,

James
