What are all those startup programs/services???

[Capricornxs]

wondering what your PC keeps on auto start everytime you boot your pc?

run: msconfig, and then click on the "startup" tab

those are all the services your windows start with, from your firewall and antivirus, to useless services like nero background check and nvidia help centre.

if you don't know what they are, simply check with this site:

it's very useful and trustworthy, and hey, if you aren't sure, leave it alone

especially if it's Win9X. NT / 2K / XP are a lot more fault tolerant, but 9x has a habit of crashing if do something as simple as click the mouse, much less play with msconfig
