Still new to Windows Vista.....

[yr3750]

1) v92 modem on hold app... 2) Intel R graphics media accelerator... 3) CD/DVD drive acoustic silencer

 

Can I delete these from starting up and running in the background utilizing CCleaner/Tools/Startup program... OR, do I need these programs for one reason or another? Where possible I want to keep things from running in the background unless it is a must have item.

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi I can't help you directly, but you should check out your start up apps at this web site.

It should tell you if the program is absolutely necessary. - type msconfig at the run menu and then go to start up to get the abbreviated name of the application.

Thanks...that helped on a couple of other items, but not the 3 listed above. It appears that the website has not been updated for Windows Vista, yet. Thanks again.

I don't think the first and last one you mentioned will cause any problem being disabled but I've no experience with Vista so can't say for definite
