I just went into my MS config, (I'm running XP,) and found the check boxes
there as big as life, both checked and unchecked.
One thing I'd like to know on this subject, (though not specifically JAWS
related is why there is no "sys tray" or that other one which is necessary
in 98. What must I have checked in XP to keep things working? I'd sure
like to uncheck everything I can to see if I can make this PC start up more
quickly and I think I'm about there.
Thanks.
