Nothing loads from msconfig. msconfig.exe is the System Configuration
Utility and allows you to troubleshoot startup items by unselecting them.
Execution Order for starting programs
With Windows XP, There are 13+ places that programs can start from and
they are executed in the following order:
Before Logon
1)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServicesOnce
2)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices
After Logon
3)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce\Setup
4) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
5) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx
6) WIN.INI [Windows] Load
7) WIN.INI [Windows] Run
8) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
9) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
10) C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
or %allusersprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
11) C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name Here\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
or %userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
12) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
13) As a Scheduled Task set to run at startup.
[[Startups in groups 6 to 11 all run at the same time (more or less).
However, the groups themselves are triggered in the order shown above. In
other words, the next group can begin launching while the previous group
is
still loading its startups. Due to timing issues it is impossible to say
what order these items will finish loading, thus it is impossible to
predict the exact order of execution for individual startups. For
instance,
you may notice two or more system tray icons changing position with each
boot - even when no changes have been made to the order.]]
[[The order of items within a group is not necessarily the final order, as
some programs take longer than others to load, and synchronous groups can
overlap each other.]]
Items in 10 and 11 execute alphanumerically. You can change the order in
10
and 11 by moving the items from 11 to 10. Also, you can rename the
shortcuts in 10 and/or 11.
For example; dfg.exe, fgh.exe and ghj.exe would start in that order. To
change the order rename the shortcuts to 1ghj.exe, 2dfg.exe and 3fgh.exe.
They would then start in that order.
Some items are a race every time as to which actually starts first, no
matter what you do.
You can use the same method to try to get something to load last.

Thank you but I am talking about the startup programs that load from
msconfig

I believe that the last items loaded are the ones that appear in
C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name Here\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

I have many programs that have an icon near the taskbar clock.
How do I make a program load last?
