OK..I'm running XP Home....there is no doubt many processes running in the background. I've tried turning some of then off...But my system ended up crashing. Does anyone know what processes are safe to unload with Windows XP Home ???? Screen shot above....these are the processes normally running--other than PSP.exe...and of cours Poser when its opened.... what is svchost.exe...there are several of those--this is what caused my system to crash when I unloaded that one.
