Neat little Windows Utility - Desk Pins

I'm not one to load junk on my PC. There's nothing worse than running so many gadgets that it drags down the performance. But... Here's one that's a keeper!

How many times have you wanted to keep a small window on top while having a larger one open at the same time? This becomes a rather annoying issue because the larger one will block out the other one when selected.

Well there's a neat add-on (free) called DeskPins.

The program works with all current versions of Windows including the 64-bit ones as well!

Great stuff and as I said worth keeping!

But I wouldn't keep anything running while playing Trainz. Most OGL or DX games don't run well when other apps are open. The exceptions of course are apps like Fraps, which are designed to run with these games.

I don't keep anything running either other than is necessary such as EVGA Precision which I use to increase my fan speed on my video card, or as you've said Fraps.

This utility can either be run at start-up, or run as needed, and can be unloaded from memory.
