Hi all I'm using a new acer Laptop, Aspire 5315-2122, With Vista Home Basic with SP1. there are appox 20 things listed in start up. I'm not sure how many are really needed at start up or can be turned on later other than the Empowering Technology program. Is there a site that can help we with deciding what can be turned of at start up. Also have something like 75 processes running. That seems kind of high, but not sure with Vista. Is there a site that can help me with that also Thanks.
