No Desktop Icons

[GlasgowGary]

Hi all, I need some help configuring my laptop for viewing via my Sony HS10.

I have it connected via the supplied multi cable using the S-Video and have tried various desktop settings and all I can see is my desktop wallpaper.

Why cant I see whats actually on my desktop instead of the bitmap used for the wallpaper?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated as always

There is an option somewhere that allows you to hide desktop icons, so maybe that's been selected.

I think it varies from OS to OS, but I was using that feature on WinMe for a while. I can't remember how you can enable it, but I think it's via the desktop settings and if you enable the desktop web features.

Sorry I can't help more than that.
