XP Start Up?

[coppilot]

Can anyone advise me of which programs need to run when my computer starts up? I am trying to eliminate some of the ones that start up now. Thanks, CP

coppilot,

Un check everything, maybe you can leave anti virus software and the entries with 'rundll32' in its comment. I think if you remove those you will get errors on startup..

Look for 'Windows XP Services Configuration'. There is one for either Home or Pro
