Desktop NVIDIA Trick From Hell
[QUOTE=SyntaX******;228*6]This is another crazy tool I'm putting together that allows visitors to create their own Windows XP (Vista coming soon) pranks. I'm posting this to get ideas/input of different registry tweaks that can cause funny results. Examples:
Speed up mouse to maximum speed
Invert Mouse
Change Background
Speed up Key***rd rate
Bootup Message
etc...
Harmless pranks that you can run on someones computer that will leave them clueless.
If you have any ideas please post the registry edits along with the reference you got the tweak from. I will start coding this as soon as I get some good tweaks from you guys.

Here's a trick I played on my clueless sister, but it depends on your system hardware.
Her computer has an NVIDIA graphics card. There are desktop settings available where you can turn the monitor screen image upside down or sideways and other things.
I did that to her on April *st and then started her screen saver to cover up the devil's handiwork until someone touched a key or the mouse.
Later, when she returned to check e-mail, everything was upside down on her desktop and she nearly split every blood vessel in her head over it.
Play a joke on her and out comes the chainsaw!
LOL
It's a totally harmless trick and the settings can easily be restored to normal, but it's a very shocking experience to people like her who need a *2-year-old to set a digital clock for her because she doesn't know how to adjust it for daylight saving time.
DEFINITION:
Practical Joke (n)
A joke you can play on someone without first having to write your Last Will and Testament as a precaution.
