You will have to use Regedit
open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Expand the Software folder
expand the microsoft folder
expand the windows folder
expand current version
There you will find one or two folders named RUN
Open them and you will find the listing in MSCONFIG
Back up your registry before you make changes
open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Expand the Software folder
expand the microsoft folder
expand the windows folder
expand current version

Open them and you will find the listing in MSCONFIG
Back up your registry before you make changes
you can try a quick fix of the registry
restart to dos mode and at the prompt type
scanreg/fix
and see. At least it'll bring your registry up to date.

Here is what I did.
start
run
regedit
did a search on the name that was in the msconfig startup
deleted the registry item
I found it worked and learned something in the process
Hope it helps

There are several places this could be located at, here they are.
Assuming you have it unchecked in MSCONFIG
1. go to the following key in Regedit (note the "-")
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Softwar
delete the listing in the right pane
2.HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Softwa
3. go to Start, Run, type SYSEDIT and hit enter, now look at the Autoexec.bat for an entry, also Config.sys, then look at Win.ini at any entries after Run, Norun, Load, Noload, if you find it then back space it out.
4. Go to Start, Programs, Disabled startup programs and see if that program is listed there, if it is then rightclick on it and delete it.
