When I start my computer, it tries to start some process, like MSN Messenger
and Skype, before having started the wirelless net connexion, so they fail to
start and I have to start them mannually after that. How to change the order
of starting the windows XP professional processess?

Click to expand...

If you have programs running at start-up that your not bothered about
running, then disable them.
MSN Messenger can be disabled at start-up in the config settings for MSN Mess.
Then you can start it manually.
Otherwise, you can 'Cntrl+Alt+Del' to bring up task manager, then select
'processes'.
From there, you can set the priority for each item loaded at start-up.
P.S....what is Skype?

If you know what it is and don't need it, either uninstall the program
associated with it, or remove it from the process list.
'Skype' doesn't seem to be a used system file, I run xp pro and can't find
it on my system.
