I recently formatted my hard disk and reinstalled Win XP home edition.

On the desktop, I am missing the icon for "My Computer", however when I view
the Desktop directory in explorer, the icon is there.

How can I get the icon on the desktop (and not as a shortcut, as the
shortcut does not provide the same functionality when right clicking the
icon)

Thank you in advance,

Ray
