i am looking for the program that lists the tasks your computer does when it starts up (ie loading programs) i thought it was regedit but i now dont think so...i remember it had 3 text files in it but i dont remember them...does this ring a bell to any1? i want to stop all of these files from starting up when i boot my computer and i know this will do it. also was this something that only windows 95,98 had?

Yeah, SYSEDIT is what you're thinking of.... I was thinking MSCONFIG too until you mentioned the text file windows...

Oh well... Hope that it all works out!
