is there a way to select or change the programs that load when you start up the computer? mine is super slow when i turn it on until everything loads up. i have windows xp.

start....run.....type msconfig, click startup tab, remove programs from start up

thanks.  8-)

A more entertaining approach would be to go into the BIOS settings mash some keys and hit F10 and let the fun begin.

;D

haha thats the problem its windows. every computer ive used with windows its slow start up some worse than others and im talking right out of the box computers. the best is the operating system with mac. as soon as you turn the computer on you can use anything without worrying about slowing it down or stuff freezing. done this test with computers right next to each other.
