576972 2007-08-07 05:27:00 Yep, just remove them like you said.
Microsoft SQL server is an advanced database management tool that some of us use for developing/managing/etc small to huge databases. A great tool - but a huge resource hog unless you actually need it.

k, i will explain what each process does and whether or not you need it:
1 - this is your Ad-Aware and i would leave on.
2 - These are to do with your AVG AV. the second process is the AVG update manager. personally i would recommend you uninstall AVG and use NOD32 (http://www.eset.com/) but that is up to you.
3 - this just gives you quick access to your control panel, a feature for Intel chipsets and is not necassary, i would turn it off.
4 - This is your intel video driver. leave it on.
5 - QuickTime, unless you were actually running it at the time you did this, i would disable it to run on start up.
6 - this is Active Tray, a utility which lets you configure the system tray. i would disable it as it isn't necassary.
7 - is a process associated with ALPHA Networks Wireless driver. I would leave this on as disabling it may cause issues with your wireless.
8 - This is also to do with your wireless. Leave it on.
9 - This is to do with logitech multimedia keyboards, also come on a lot of HP computers. Not necessary - up to you.
10 - The HP update manager - leave this on.
11 - This is to do with your AVG Anti-Virus Control Center - leave
12 - Your zonealarm firewall. You don't need AVG, ZoneAlarm, and your anti malware. Personally i would recommend you just stick with Zonealarm and un-install the other two programs as you don't need this many AV products. Or of cause, just get NOD32
13 - Self explanitory i'm sure. Leave on
14 - To do with your RaLink wireless card. leave
15 - is a process associated with Digital Imaging Software from Hewlett-Packard. not essential. i would disable it on startup.
16 - To do with your zone alarm firewall. Checks incoming traffic to make sure it is ok with the rules you have set.
17 - Windows messenger. you don't need to run this on startup. But if you disable it in msconfig, you also need to do it within msn itself (tools - options - uncheck the box)

The rest are windows services which you need, or outlook or whatever you happened to be running at the time.
Go and disable the ones i mentioned, use one AV product - out of the ones you have i would use zonealarm but preferably get NOD32 (http://www.eset.com/)
do this, and let me know if your pc is still running slow, then we will move onto the next step. Cheers

576978 2007-08-08 04:55:00 Hey Demonhunter
That is great, thank you. My only issue now is where to delete them from? and/or turn them off or disable them in the startup menu?:confused:
theother1 (3573)
576979 2007-08-08 06:54:00 Ok, well to remove the programs:
Start - Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs then select the program and run the un-installer.

For the processes:
Start - Run - type 'msconfig' - select the 'startup' tab, and uncheck the programs you don't want running on startup.
If you have any other questions about the services or programs you are runnign on startup please ask about them.
Cheers

576980 2007-08-08 22:05:00 Thank you Demonhunter. I have followed your suggestions and am waiting for the computer to restart. I look forward to seeing if it is any better. I am concerned that it is probably just a lemon!!!! theother1 (3573)
576981 2007-08-08 22:12:00 I use the free versions of Zonealarm and AVG is nod32 also free? theother1 (3573)
