My dad is has ATI multimedia center set up on his computer but is haveing a little problem when he starts up windows it is starting first and not allowing explorer.exe to start. I could not think of a way to fix this I was wondering if you guys had any ideas. Thanks
Can you explain it bit more plz.? What do you mean by that? Which error are you exactly getting? More you explain will make us more easy to solve~!
I'm not actualy getting an error. Just when it starts windows the program starts before explorer.exe. Basicly what I want to do is turn down the priority for this process to start so explorer starts up first.
Check in your startup Start > Programs > Startup......and arrange accordingly Otherwise if you want to disable any program to start when your computer starts then go to RUN enter msconfig, unselect those which you dont want under start tab~!
That won't work due to the fact that this program is not in the startup folder in the start menu ( most programs dont get put their even when they do start up). And I can't just disable the program cus my dad wants it to come up he just wants it to load explorer.exe first so his desktop shows up.

Edit with Registry Start > Run > Regedit go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Change the Value Names by adding a number in front of each one, in the order you want. But it probably won't make any difference on which program starts first, it's a race.
Well after trying this I have found in the registry that this program is alredy set to a delay yet that dosent seem to be working.
If you are interested in software then download [link=http://www.r2.com.au/software.php?page=2&show=startdelay] R2 Studios [/link]. This software will allows you to set times as well, like after how much time you want another program to run~!
