Department Windows workstations can be found in staff and some faculty and student offices, and the student computing labs in Tate Lab 80 and 469. We can also configure Windows systems for use in research labs or other offices - please feel free to discuss your needs with us.

You can log into these systems using your normal Physics account.

Your personal files are all available within “My Documents” on your desktop (this also appears as drive Z:), which is also your home directory on the main Physics server. Please don't try to store your files on the local hard drive (C:), as they may be deleted during normal system maintenance.
