464338 2006-06-19 05:42:00 Hello, my computer died and I'm borrowing an old one of my daughter's. It runs ME slowly(it is old and short on RAM), but if I press CTRL+ALT+DEL I get the following in the Close Program box:-
Explorer
Avgemc
Avgcc
Hpcmpmgr
Systray
Hpwuschd2
Hpztsb10. Are these causing it to start/run slowly? Can I delete them from the startup in 'msconfig' without harm being done? Thanks in advance for any help.............Sarum

464339 2006-06-19 05:58:00 I doubt those entries will be causing the computer to run slowly but if you wish you can untick the following in msconfig:

Hpcmpmgr
Hpwuschd2
Hpztsb10

Leave the others alone.

Would suggest that you check out this FAQ (www.pressf1.co.nz 5) for info on tips to try and speed things up a bit.

464340 2006-06-20 10:30:00 Thanks Foxy. My mistake; for borrowing an elderly family computer, and asking for help in a rather small area; suggests that I may be new to Press F1, which I'm not.
I've been to this FAQ(#15) before.
My daughter suggests I do a clean install - if I can find the CD; which may be in a box somewhere.
I'm retired and have time, so I thought I'd go through the FAQ15 and see what happens.
I think I shall be back again(index.dat/spider/wiz.exe spring to mind).
.................sarum.
