Unchecked BOX, RESTARTed computer and the following message was received on
restart. Is this NORMAL? If not what can I do to ID the item with no name?

Entirely normal.

If not what can I do to ID the item with no name?

You can re-enable it, and use the location listed in msconfig to locate and
delete the real reference in the registry.

That message is entirely normal. You can choose to disable the message, or
you can delete the item you disabled and set msconfig back to normal mode.
