This may be a silly question - but one I have never known the answer too.

when I take a look at the start up tab via mscofig, and I UNCHECK something so that it does not start everytime my computer starts - is this the correct way?

Question being will I then forever get the message that I am starting Selective Start up and not normal. Shouldnt I be starting up in Normal?

How do I remove those items in the start up tab for good? And then have my computer start in Normal?

Hope that made sense... thanks! Kris

Actually the very next time it boots on the window doing the blah blah blah about selective start up is a small box in the lower left corner "Check to not see this again"
It is one way to do what you are wanting to do yes. It isn't the only way by any means as they make start up monitor programs in bunches.

If you want to clean up the unchecked items, you can also follow this procedure
