registry editor

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize (More info?)

Hi

If you are not sure about manually editing the Registry - what are you doing in there? Use msconfig>startup instead to uncheck those entries. If they are not referenced there, go into the relevant program via settings and disable it starting up with Windows.

Yes, you could very 'mess something up' and render your PC completely unbootable!!
