Win2k...question about creating users

I want to create a user on my computer(running Win2k) purely for watching movies, listening to mp3s, and watching TV. The trouble is, whenever I create a user it mimics my administrator desktop(I use the admin as my main user). So it has all my icons and stuff on the screen and if i delete them from the user I created for watching movies and stuff it removes it from my admin desktop as well. Is there any way to create a completly new profile for my other user? So that I can set screen resolution to whatever I want and clean the desktop of any and all icons I dont want, and still leave my admin desktop intact?
thanks,

It sounds like the icons you are tying to remove are actually in the all users desktop folder. Go to c:\documents and settings\all users\desktop to check. If they are then move them to c:\documents and settings\administrator\desktop.

You cannot have different screen resolutions for different users.
 
you cant have different res's for different users? wow, thats crappy. Can XP support different resolutions?
