Is there any way to put the video folder on the start menu, like you can
"games" "music" ect?

If you create a new shortcut to

%userprofile%\Videos

then you can drag it to the Start button / orb and then position it at the
top left
 
You can add it to the left side as a pinned shortcut to the Start Menu, but
not to the right side, like "Games", "Music", etc. To add it as a pinned
shortcut, open your User Name folder, and drag the Videos folder onto the
Start button, wait for the menu to open, and drop it where you want it in
the menu.
 
The right-side of the Start Menu is pretty well locked down. However, if
you don't use the 'Games' item, you could 'take over' the CLSID of the Games
folder -- and you can actually do it on a per-user basis. But if you do
that, Games Explorer will open to
your Videos folder.

If you want to try it, post back & I'll post the details.
