Thanks for the input, guys. Being lazy, I've found msconfig and have used it to control my start ups. So far, so good. However, once I get through transferring stuff from xp to vista, I'll be looking into winpatrol.

BTW, what is "acer gaia?" Googled it, but can't get a handle on it. I've unselected it, but it keeps coming back in msconfig startup. I don't need it, do I?
