If you set everything to automatic you probably have services running that
aren't needed. This will slow down your computer and may cause other

Go to Start > Run and type: MSCONFIG , and hit enter.
Under the General tab, check "Normal Startup - load all device drivers and services",
click "apply" and reboot.
