Need startup list help
Need help with which programs that no not have to be checked off in startup on my Compaq Armada Laptop with Win98 SE
The ones listed without the X--- are the ones that I'm not sure of.
Thanks for any help, Mike

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
To honest, you don't need any of that stuff except for the things you already know what they are. With all of that loading at startup it's a wonder you have enough resources left to do anything else. You also don't really need Office starting at boot unless you use it right off the bat and use it very often. Any of the other programs can be started after the boot process if and when needed.

Thanks for all the help, Mike
Your welcome !
X--Systemtray
IrMon --Irmon looks for Fast infrared protocol
Ati2cwxx -- video task icon
AtIGart -- ATiGart is the portion of the driver that handles the AGP memory functions
TrackPointSrv -- Mouse fast scrolling
AtiPTA -- Ati Video Card Features
hkss -- Look for this on your HDD to see what it belongs to
Hibernation -- mode saves everything that is in memory on the hard disk, turns off your monitor and hard disk, and turns off your computer.
Promon.exe -- I believe this is your network card configuration utility
X-----TaskMonitor
LoadPowerProfile -- Loads the Icon for Task Monitor or runs Scheduled Tasks
bpcpost.exe -- Microsoft TV Viewer Post Setup Program (web TV?)
ICServer (causes very long shutdowns) -- web TV
EM_EXEC -- Logitech Mouse Wheel
SchedulingAgent -- Task scheduler
SNMP agent -- Simple Network Management Protocol

ATIPIOLAB -- video
TVWakeup -- web TV
Annoucements -- probably web TV related
VidSvr -- web TV
X----WallMaster
Mediamatics FIXDVDB -- it is probably the database for the wallpaper application
