Hi I want a startup cofiguration program that allows me to pick the order in which I want things to start.

My main concerns are that I want my internet connection to be the first to start cause if it doesn't programs that use the internet stall my startup. Also it would be nice it allow me to delay some startup programs to start a few minutes after startup.

Please let me know if you know of any program that is good at doing this. Thanks.

msconfig.exe allows you to make your selections, but dependencies and timing delays are a whole seperate story that need to be configured per service and scripts

check out autoruns from www.sysinternals.com ...sorta advanced but it may have some stuff you're looking for
