Identifying A Startup Program - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

MahlerIsGod · 10-20-2003, 01:15 AM

I ran my SANDRA utility again for the first time in a long time because someone mentioned it in another post in this forum. One of the tips it gave was that a program (BCMSMMSG.exe) takes up a lot of memory and that I may not want to run. Problem is is that I have no idea what the hell that program is. Is there a website or program which can help me indentify the programs in my startup menu? Much obliged. Thanks

What OS are you using??? If you are using Windows XP try doing th following.

Start>Run
Type: msconfig
Click OK

That will give you a list of everything that runs at startup.

What is this SANDRA program you speak of? He asks curiously.

I'm intrigued.
