    My XP home is slow. In msconfig--services there is:-
    NETROPA NHK
    Will disabling this speed things up? How would I disable it (or other items in services or start up) without causing start up problems?

    I believe netropa is GPS.

    Netropa NHK Server is used to disable hotkeys on some Dell and Compaq computers when the screensaver is running. It is not necessary and can be disabled in Services. Do not disable through msconfig. Go to Start and select Run. Type services.msc in the box and press the Enter key. Scroll down the list to this service, double click it and Stop it then set it to Disabled.
