I opened System Configuration Utility , clicked on Selective Startup, and
checked all the boxes EXCEPT Load Startup Items, which I left unchecked.
When I clicked Apply. I got the following message:
"An Access Denied error was returned while attempting to change a service.
You may need to log on using an Administrator account to make the specified
changes."
I am the only user of this computer. I am the administrator of this
computer. Is there a special way for me to log in as administrator other
than just to log in?
Do you have some sort of system security software running? That may
be "protecting" you from changes in the startup configuration.
Try booting the computer into Safe Mode then launching MSCONFIG and
making the changes.
Note: Please ensure that you fully understand the purpose of a
startup item, how and why it was put into the startup, and the
consequences (if any) of removing it before you make any changes. Some
startup items are very important for the proper and safe functioning
of your computer.
Good luck
