yes, right click on the start menu and select Properties, then click on the start menu tab, and select customize. From there you select the Advanced tab and look for Scroll Programs. that is what you need a check mark by.

"Use personalized menus" is only available if you use the "Classic" start menu.

Exclamation

Sorry to post this back up... i just realized that myself, you can't use the "personalized start menu" if you are not using the classic start menu...
So my question is... is there any options or tweeks that I do to make my new XP Style Start Menu personalized and display only most used programs...
Thanks
