msconfig

[Jonathan]

Can anyone explain to me, except Andrew, what is 'msconfig' -- in laymans'
terms. The whole 'RUN" aspect of the computer is foreign to me and I'm
having some problems and the answers that keep popping up are "Go to Start ->
Run -> type in msconfig.

Last time I did that it took me two days to get my computer back so I'm
msconfig-gunshy, so to speak.

I'm new to this board so be patient with my idiot entry level.
I'm going to look up the folks in Outlook now, but in the meantime, any
responses are appreciated. Be nice Bruce. Jonathan
