Running xps3, When i boot up, icons load in system tray (lower right next to clock) with MS messanger before my wireless program. Boot up stalls because MS messanger is trying to connect to my hotmail account and wifi connection is not established yet. After a while, load proceeds. I would like bootup to load wifi first, then antiviress, messanger, bluetooth, etc. Is there a easy fix? ............tom

I've used DelayedExec from time to time.

I keep my start up pretty lean so I don't use it often.

Might not work but if you disable msmessanger and then reboot .. then enable messenger and reboot again. sometimes this will reorder the startup programs try it out it won't hurt anything and is simple ...It has worked for me in the past.
