Yes, I just learned that's what it's called.

I was just searching in Windows help on my laptop, where it says:
'Flip 3D can be enabled by pressing CTRL+Windows-logokey +TAB'.

Well, I've been doing that, but guess what... nothing happens!

Hi Linea,

This tutorial will help show you how to use Flip 3D. It is not available in the Vista Home Basic edition though.

Flip 3D

Hope this helps,

No such icon. Beginning from left I have icons 'Start', 'show desktop',
'media player', 'intentet explorer', etc.
