Find a Familiar Start Menu

If you've switched to Windows Vista and are having a hard time adapting to its new Start menu, here's how you can switch to something more familiar.

Right-click the Start button, choose Properties, and click the Start Menu tab. Here, you have two options: Start Menu and Classic Start Menu. The Classic version gives you the look and functionality of previous Windows versions. To switch to the Classic menu, select it and then click OK.
