    Processes
    When I check the processes. I can delete some of them for the one session but they are back on again. How do I get rid of lots of these processes for good. Without costing money for programs?

    Thank you in advance!

    I do not know if it matters but I am running xp pro.

    Why do you want to get "rid" of these? Is it because they are taking up too much memory? My guess is most of them are needed. How much memory do you have... anything less than 512mb for XP is too little and 1gb is ideal. This site http://www.processlibrary.com/ will tell you what each process does and why it is needed.

    My memory is 256 mb. I am sure there are some processes that I do not really need. How do I go about getting rid of the ones that I do not really need. Thank you for the links by the way.

Can anyone explain why a single processor system can only have one process in the running state at a time? I've tried to find the answer in my textbooks, but they just state the obvious and don't answer why this is so. Does it have to do with scheduling? Resources? Thanks in advance to...
