Using XP Home to allow users to have different start up programs

[Guest]

Alrighty, Here's my problem. I use my computer for many different tasks, one
of them being digital audio recording/mixing. Normally when I start up my
computer I have around 45 programs running which really limits what my DAW
can do. I set up a seperate user and using ms-config I disabled almost every
program to where I only had 12 programs running. All was fine until I logged
in on my original user name. It only had 12 programs running as well - that's
my problem.

Is there a way to make windows or msconfig run independently on each log-in
so that I can set them to run different program sets?

The System Configuration Utility operates at the system level, so it affects
all users equally.

Is there any way to change startup on Per User basis?

Thanks,

As I explained, startup happens at the system level.

The only programs whose startup can be customized for different users are
those which can only be started by placing a shortcut to the program in the
user's Startup folder.
