This should be pretty easy - but I can't figure it out

Sweet Angel · 02-15-2003, 06:20 PM

I'm running XP on my computer. On my old Windows 98, you could go in and disable things on startup. I can't figure out how to do that in XP, so I have like 15-20 little icons on my bottom bar.

HELP!

Thanks. :loveya:

You can't do -->run-->msconfig and do it that way? :clueless:

Sweet Angel · 02-15-2003, 06:44 PM

I dunno. That's why I asked.

**EDIT: Why yes, Ms. SmartyPants, it seems I can. Now, if I can only remember what definitely NEEDS to be left on, and what's optional....

Thanks Luna!

Hmmmmm..... I know systray and Explorer have to stay.......you better get some advice from somebody else about the rest, tho.

I unchecked a bunch of stupid stuff, ink monitor, precision time, date manager...that kind of crap. It was driving me crazy not being able to find where to go to shut that stuff off. Thanks again!

Sweet Angel · 02-15-2003, 10:59 PM

I had a Ken's Pen status too, until I asked Jack to change mine. It's been "under review" for like 2 months now. It's time for a change.
