Do NOT use msconfig to change your services.
Use services.msc *NOT* msconfig.exe!
Start | Run | Type: services.msc | Click OK
Why can't I use msconfig to change my services?
[[The reason is because with msconfig and Hardware Profiles, you can disable
services that may be vital to boot your system. With the management console
(services.msc) you cannot. Also, msconfig, while unchecking the box, is
disabling the service.
The "Disable All" button also scares me. It should not even be there as no
reason exists to justify disabling "everything."]]
