Okay I thank you all.
It no longer loads up loads of crap that slows it down.
Or, it DID.
My Graphics card, or Graphics drivers have been on the blink/acting up.
So after error reporting loads of crashes that ocure when im playing games I get a page from Microsoft that says it would be greatly benneificial to download Service Pack 2 for XP.
So after I did the long long install(Took 1 1/2 hours nearly) and having nearly died of boredom it asks me to Restart.
Then when it restarts it asks me before logon screen prompt if I wanted to have Automatic Updates or not to update.
I made this big mistake of clicking on Automatic Updates.
Now it takes twice as long loading because of some stupid little prompt thing that sets all the programs to my "Personal Settings".
There is an SS of this prompt below. The command prompt loads before my Taskbar, Icons and any interface items do!
After the SS Command prompt thing is finished.
How do I turn of these things?
I looked in the Startup folder and gone on the "msconfig" and can't find them.
Please help me on this....Thanks guys.
Oh and, before I post it.
If you could.
Can you please tell me how to change the Computer settings so that everything doesn't have the file extension on the end.
Like there will be a Word document and it will always have .doc on the end of it's name. If I delete it then the file becomes an unreadable windows file.
THis happens with every single file almost.
Text douments all have .txt
Excel have .xml on the end
And so fourth.
Please, I don't want the file extension on the end of all the files. Or at very least. Not now.
Even my school work from a Pen-Drive from school comps turn into things like "E-Portfolio.doc" when it was just "E-Portfolio" on the computers.
If this is a system change and can't be reverted or set in Control panel or something then i'm cool with it.
Just want to know if I can change it back.
Thanks agian....
