I have removed it from the start up (both "Start/All Programs/Start Up & Start/Run/config or whatever that is that was suggested in the question search. Is there anything else I can try? I have been working on this for hours and I just cant seem to figure it out. Thanks!!!!!

My hard drive sounds as if it may be on its last legs. Can the hard drive and XP operating system be copied/mirrored? I really don't want to lose the installed programs. I have a dell 4600 with windows pre-installed at the factory.

I'm going to build a pc for an old friend of my dad. All he really uses the computer for is online banking, browsing the internet, and some basic computing functions. He doesn't really need a high end pc. My goal is to build him a very reliable pc for as little as possible. The OS I'll be putting on it is Windows XP Pro so I don't have to buy a new OS.

It looks like I can get a 1.86ghz Intel Core 2 Duo for a little under $200 or I can get a 3ghz Intel Pentium 4 for about $75. Which of these would be the better choice for basic computing? Will the dual core processor be needed or should I go with a high end Pentium 4? Will any other CPU better fit the bill? I'd prefer to stick with Intel.

Thanks.

My computer seems to supply power to external devices even after it has shut down. The keyboard lights remain on and power can still be drawn from the USB ports. I have one of those light-sensing self-illuminating USB webcams and its lights come on even after the computer has turned off. What should I do to prevent the computer from supplying power?

My computer freezes (picture and sound). I suspect that the problem is memory (RAM). I heard that I can test it using some programs. Please tell me were can I get such a freeware program. My next option is to buy new RAM.

I have recently purchased 1gb of RAM to upgrade my computer. I have done it before, but this time the computer will not boot at all with the new RAM, but will when I take it out again.
Is it faulty? Because I am sure 100% it's compatible.

so it's not defrag etc. I do think it is the amount of processes (56) working away in the background though that is the cause. However, I am not sure which of many is not required on start-up.

If anyone can give me advice on how to go about finding out it would be much appreciated, as it is taking well over 10 minutes to boot up what with scanning for viruses etc, painfull when you are in a hurry.

Thank you in anticipation.
