Hold down the Windows key and hit the Pause/Break key (beside ScrollLock). This should open the My Computer properties screen. More such keyboard shortcuts at the link below.

Windows key+F, then Backspace, then tab until you get to the My Computer Icon
Hold down the Windows key (next to Ctrl) and press Break (usually at the top right of your keyboard).
Alternatively:
Hold down the Windows key (next to Ctrl) and press E. This will open Windows Explorer and My Computer will probably be highlighted (if it isn’t use the arrow keys to select it). You can press the Context menu key (next to Ctrl on the right hand side of your keyboard) and choose Properties.
press ALT+TAB then when the icon is highlighted click the keyboard key near CTRL,, it is like a paper and a arrow.. hit it then a drop down will appear then choose properties by keyboard.. hope it helps… please rate my answer… thanks!
