I'm used to generating Task Manager with Ctrl-Alt-Del but it doen't work in Vista - anyone know where it's hiding?

After pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del you should come to the screen showing:
Lock this computer Switch User Log off Change a password Start Task Manager
After selecting Start Task Manager Task Manager should then open. Sorry I don't know of any shortcut.

You can open Task Manager directly in Vista with Ctrl-Shift-Esc

Thanks guys - I didn't get any of those options OF, it was something like the old 'press ctrl-alt-del again to restart your computer' so I just went back to what I was doing. I'll have another go on Monday - when I'm not in the middle of anything else

Strange because that is what my Vista screen showed. And just re-checked. Could there be a difference with Vista Home Premium and ??
Mike. Thanks that works a treat.

I get the task manager up by right click an empty area of the taskbar and selecting Task Manager.
