When you are in MScofig, you can also remove the ones in the startup section that say System, there usually should be nothing in it if you have a new PC. Also, to make the programs in the startup list disapear, go to Run, regedit, Hkey_local_MachineSOFTWARE/Windwos/currentversion/Run
and remove the registry keys that you dont need.

WARNING: Modifying the registry can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. I can't guarantee that problems resulting from modifications to the registry can be solved. Use the information provided at your own risk.

My Windows has been starting really slow for the past week or so, so I simply went into MSCONFIG (Start>Run>msconfig) and disabled all the unnecessary start-up programs (the ones that don't say SYSTEM next to them).I believe that msconfig is one of the better ways to increase start-up speed for your computer.

Infact , that is the way for which i was looking . That is the way to control the start up items . Oh , great ! thank you buddy !

Nice not too bad. My PC is OK at moment but the techniques you suggest are good.

Yeah, my computer was going really slow lately, so I ran an amazing program called CCleaner (/ccleaner). It has functions that let you clean out your registry (where alot of problems arise), take out alot of temporary files, deletes unnecessary programs, deletes hidden logs of files (those can really add up, I had over 50MB of logs, which is amazing.) it lets you manually edit your startup folder (where alot of unnecessary programs and viruses start), and cleans out all the other areas you may have missed. This program made my boot speed alot faster and I highly reccommend it if you want a faster boot speed.
