Second desk top screen

I am using Windows XP. My desktop screen is full and I need all the short cuts. Can I have two desktops?

 

What I would do is create a folder (name it what you want) and put all the icons that you don't use as often in there. So it's in easy reach. You can even put it in categories, e.g. I have a folder called Media Players.

Or, you can increase the resolution, make the icons smaller, or get an extra monitor and have it stretch across. Third option kinda expensive though, unless you have one laying around.
