How do I change the Automatic/Manual/Disable function?

Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services Select from available services Select from automatic, manual or disable
Go to: Start --> Control Panel --> Administrative Tools --> Services Select, from the long list, which service you would like. Using the drop down menu, automatic/manual/disable that function. When in doubt, use "Manual."

After finishing, reboot to see the effects of your tweaking.

Note: Do not use msconfig to stop services. It basically "disables" a service. Use the above procedure and set to "manual" instead for testing purposes.

If you like, you can also do: Start --> Run --> type in services.msc --> select OK.

I am still on converting the entire domain over to WordPress. As such, things look a lot differently then they have for many years. Hang in there... all will be back to normal soon enough (after lots of hours on my part).
