When you install software it frequently adds features you don’t want. One such feature is loading itself, or some part of itself, at startup. This makes the boot process much too long and unnecessarily ties-up memory resources.
To correct this annoyance click on Start then Run. In the dialog box type msconfig and hit enter. Now select the Start-up tab and uncheck the offending programmes and restart your PC.
You will be confronted by a warning message. Read it carefully. Do not check the box to eliminate it just yet. Got to Start/Run and enter msconfig again. Look at the General tab, you will notice some changes but don’t do anything. Use your PC for a day to be sure everything runs OK and then shut it off normally. When you start it the following day, check the box to eliminate the warning message if everything is working properly.
However, if you experienced problems go to Start/Run and enter msconfig and revise your choices in the Start-up tab or select Normal Stat-up in the General tab.
