Startup

Hi All, no more "Msconfig" to go to for removing some programs icons from systray. Can someone show me where to go now to uncheck programs that are loading at "Startup". Takes awhile to learn about the differences from Win98se and W2000.
Thank You,,Paul D

where's msconfig ?

I used to type msconfig in the run window to access the boot configuration of windows in the 9x series, but now ,seems like it has another name in win2000. Do someone know about that ?
msconfig.exe was removed from W2k

below you find a link to the XP version of msconfig that works on win2k as well

Thank a lot.

Try another way:
Start->Settings->Control Panel->Administrative Tool->Service
from here you find them

Thumbs up StartUp Cop

Hello people,,well I found something in my reading and I am now using "StartUp Cop". I think that I will be using this for controling what loads at startup of Windows.
Thank you for all the help,,
Paul
