Do you mean the operating system, or the computer itself? All kinds of drivers, processes, etc. are launched, in any case. Check out this article for more: What happens during Windows Startup?

Hi,

Windows Startup refers to the list of startup programs and services running when your operating system boots up. In other words, Windows has a list of programs and services that should run after Windows has been loaded.

This list might contains necessary as well as unnecessary items. In most cases, when a computer is infected by a virus, the execution entry of the virus is created in this list; so as to run it regularly and perform its silly tasks.

There is a utility called "System Configuration" in Microsoft Windows that allows you manually enabling or disabling such items. So, disabling the unnecessary items is always helpful; and leads to optmum system performance.

RegInOut software will also help you control this items along with other features to optimize the system performance. It is available for download here: http://download.cnet.com/RegInOut/3000-2094_4-10965219.html?part=dl-10053761&subj=dl&tag=button

To control the startups, perform this procedure:

1. Click Start button on the Taskbar.

2. Click Run, in case you use Windows XP.

3. Type MsConfig and press ENTER.

4. In the Startup and Services tab, disable the unnecessary items.

5. Afterward, click Apply -> OK button.

6. Restart your system.
