EDIT: I have adjusted all the startup entries... or most of them; still couldn't get a few from the original guide in pg1. I'll restart the comp later and see if i have any problems; as well as an update to how many processes are running. THX 4 all the help so far!
EDIT2: So on a fresh boot up... it's starting with 64 processes. Still alot?
