    Default Faster/Easier Running!

    I was under the impression that everyone knew about this but it seems I was wrong. So for those of you who dont know, I will show you quickly

    -You Need to be Running a Windows OS(it may work for other OS's but I have not tested).

    -Open the Start Menu.

    -Click 'RUN'.

    -A little message box should pop-up with a space for you to type.

    -Type in 'msconfig'.

    -Another (Bigger) Window should pop-up.

    -On there should be a bunch of Tabs on the top of the window.

    -Towards the right side you should see one that says 'StartUp'.

    - Click the 'StartUp' tab.

    NOTE:All these different things you will see listed once you click the 'StartUp' Tab are all programs that load when you turn on your PC. Some of them you may want to keep checked (AntiVirus programs and such).

    -At this point, you can either click Disable all, or you can pick the ones you would like to keep.

    What all this does is stops your PC from opening/Running all those different things on StartUp. You can always open/run the programs later if you want.

    If you have any questions feel free to ask.

    Are you sure that I can just disable all those programs in \WINDOWS\ directory and .EXE:s without any file path without getting my computer mad?

    I just wanne say, be carefull with changing StartUp programs, cause you can accidentally stop a program which was needed to boot...
    If you want to take a closer look at these programs then use this program

    None of the programs under the StartUp Tab are neded to Boot. Just dont mess around with the other Tabs unless you know what your doing.

    Lol doesn't everyone know this.

    Btw, if you become 'stupid' and problems arouse withe some things not coming up then it may be hard to switch back to normal startup in vista.

    Just make sure you check make boot settings permanent or w\e.

    ^:if u have to go back to normal

    Nice tutorial, but doesn't everyone know this!!


    LOL
