After Installing Office 2007/2010 on Windows 7/Vista you're missing the Outlook icon on the desktop.
This icon is useful more than just to start Outlook (which can also be replaced by a simple shortcut...).
It is also has the ability to get you right into the Outlook Control Panel, same as clicking on the Control Panel Mail icon.
To restore this special icon you need to add a simple key to the registry. follow these instructions to make the tweak:
Step 1
Go to the "Start" menu and select "Run." (Type "run" and hit "Enter" after clicking the "Start" menu in Windows Vista and 7.)
Step 2
Type "regedit" in the search line and click "OK" to start the Registry Editor.
Step 3
Browse to the following registry entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace
Click the "NameSpace" key.
Step 4
Click the "Edit" menu option in Registry Editor's window and select "Add." Type the following in the "Key" field {00020D75-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} and click "OK."
Step 5
Go to your desktop and click the "F5" key to refresh it and the Outlook icon should appear. You may have to log off and then log back in to see the icon.
That's it!
Have fun with Outlook :)

BSOD Fix: STOP: c000021a The Windows Logon Process system process terminated unexpectedly with a status
you get a BSOD like this when you boot your Windows XP:
STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error}
The Windows Logon Process system process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0xc0000034 (0x00000000 0x0000000)
The system has been shutdown.
Microsoft suggest this article with step-by-step instructions:

I've found it easier to fix by booting using ERD Commander 2007 and using the System File Repair Wizard.
it will scan your Windows folder and will repair the corrupted files. the process takes less than 5 minutes and you're up and running again.
it is advised to run a disk scan like Chkdsk, to make sure the problem didn't raised because of a HD problem. in most cases the cause is unsuccessful updates/installations.
Good Luck,
Yaron
