Ok…so HOW do I prevent certain programs from autoloading? We’ve stated exacly how to create a new start up point but then forget to mention how to stop those auto load programs from loading.

Those with slower processor speeds running 98 take longer or about the same time as those running ME or XP with 2 to 10 times faster processor speed and similar quantity of memory.

If you seldom remove cookies and temp files or defrags the hard drive, you’ll have another thing coming.  My making sure those duties got done didn’t help.

Removing a few programs from the start menu which helped a little bit.

I’m hesitant to remove any more lest I mess up the PC so we can’t get it started. I’m not smart enough to know what is essential for starting the PC safely and protecting it from a virus and so on.

I’ve asked a few forums about deleting unnecessary programs from the start menu. They all agreed that should help. But, would not clarify what is absolutely essential for me.

So if one of you out there doesn’t mind telling me what would be considered essential, I sure would appreciate it.
