MSCONFIG Problem

[Michael M. Bates]

Hi:

On MSCONFIG/Startup, all the boxes are unchecked, and I can't check any of
them.

Any ideas? All assistance is appreciated.

Have you run a full virus scan?
Various peices of malware have been known to interfere
with msconfig.

Are you an administrator? Many possible items on that list require admin permissions to alter. I typically have nothing a user can alter.

Yes, the only user on my machine is Owner and the profile indicates
"computer administrator."
