I have Windows 98(SE) anmd Windows XP. I will be using my PC mostly
for internet and video editing, and will be experimenting with a
ramdisk.(I'll have a total of 512mb to work with).
So from what I can tell, the following are the only apps that I need
on start-up:
1) ScanRegistry
2) TaskMonitor
3) SystemTray
4) LoadPowerProfile
5) Anti-Virus Program
I guess it is best to try to work my way up from there, using
"Blackviper" to figure out what is what.
And I should be able to whittle my sytem down to this using
"MSCONFIG". And I'm assuming that this is better than "startup.cpl"
because nothing extra will be running in the background.
I've read previous advice about staying away from ram-freeing apps,
but there is a lot of contradicting info on this.
Thanks for all the advice.
