I need some fresh input on this.
ABout 6 months ago I noticed that upon booting my computer not all programs were loading in to the system tray. About 6 at a time were and only the most important (mouse driver, network, DVD writer, bluetooth, skype and MSN sort of thing). TO get the above things e.g. remote for tv tuner, speaker control, second copy back up, memory card back up, WLAN utility etc. I found I had to log off and on - something I never do because it's my personal laptop.
I did some research and found the programs people advised (it's a well known problem when you have a lot of system tray activity at start up) to fix it but none worked. I have lived with it since. Seeing as I only do a restart about once a week it doesn't matter much but I was wondering who else has come across this and how they fixed it please?
I now try to find the answers to fix it and find nothing on searching Btw. the programs load but you just can't access them usually. I.e. Folding@home software I know is running as the fan stays on throughout - i.e. high CPU usage but I can't access it through the system tray.
NB: I have tried tech pro utilities system start analyser and another program both found to be advised previously but to no avail and I do know it's a common problem.
Cheers
