hey guys,
hmm i was looking at my task manager the other day trying to shut down as many programs i dont need to try to give a video converter as much ram as it wanted, and i noticed that i have alot of useless little programs runnig that i dont want running such as 2 diffrent wizards for photoshop elements and another wizard for my camara and other little programs that come with programs that run all the time even when the origonal progam was never ran since boot... anyways does anyone know of a way to stop them from starting up? i cant remember the name of the file that holds a list of little progams to start them up when windows starts... lol anyhelp would be appreciated.
 
yes i did check to make sure that i got rid of programs that i dont use anymore, but my problem was really the programs that I like that have stupid useless little programs that are constantly running haha but thats for the reply :)

For starters ... wouldnt it be simpler to shut down Photoshop Elements while encoding?

well thats the thing, it wasnt running. it was just one of those stupid wizards that was running so that when you plug a digital camara in it would pop up and say your to dumb too get the files yourself.. let ME do it! lol
