    HELP! w/Windows processes

    Dear DAL Community:

    I found many useless processes running at the back of my windows which leeches memory. Everytime I have to do manually to end these processes whenver I want to turn my PC on. I was thinking that if there is anyway of settings to make these applications/process stop running whenever I turn on the PC? Thank You

    What are the "processes" which you want to stop?

    You may be able to disable some through Services.msc.

    Others through msconfig.

    Are any of these in your Startup? (Start, Programs, Startup)

    "so how do u do the services.msc?"

    Start, Run, type in services.msc. Right click on a service and choose Propereties. In the "Startup type:" drop-down box you can choose Automatic, Manual, or Disabled.
