Computer cannot start up - Start up repair
Hello, i downloaded Comodo CIS yesterday (after uninstalling Avira) with no problems, but this morning my Acer One d270 was unable to start giving a black screen, and i clicked enter on the option to use ''Start up repair'', which only seemed to show the following ;
''Unspecified change to system configuration may have caused the problem error code = ox490''
I managed to start in normal mode in the end and everything seem to be working ok as far as speed etc gos. I installed the VMware - Toolwiz Timefreeze, a couple of days ago. Before that i installed Sandboxie, but then uninstalled after it caused BSOD which according to the dump file was caused by the Intel Graphics Accelerator Drivers for Windows 7(R) file - igdkmd32.sys .
I noticed that for sometime before the latest downloads that when running windows ''fix problems'', that it says i have too many programs running on start up ,so today i disabled, adobe reader + acrobat, google update , and toolwiz so they are not running on start up. I also have Rapport installed and running but its not showing in msconfig start up list so not sure about it. I'm assuming Word,excel,ccleaner,glary utilities, are not running on start up but dont know how to check.
Here is my Windows Start up list via CCleaner ;

I have no idea what i should disable on Start up from here. The Auto.kms is nothing malicious. I think i will try and test out if my hard drive is healthy (any ideas which way is best??) and do a defrag.
Can anybody help with regards to what programs i need on start up, and is it safe to use CCleaner to disable any of the above ?
I'm now going to try to check my HDD out and do a defrag but am not that up on this stuff.
Just did an ''analyse'' for defrag, but only showing 4% so i guess not a problem ? I cant see that the Hard drive is bad as this laptop is not much more than a year old.
Thanks for any help !!
