services.msc

[TEAK36]

I am following some insrutctions on how to speed up the boot time of my laptop,which takes about 5 minutes to boot up.I have disbled some of unused programs in 'msconfig',and I now want to look into cancelling unused services.The instuctions (from pc mag) say I need to type services.msc into the 'Run' box,but when I do this,a message appears saying this path cannot be found.Any help would be most appreciated.

Open your Control Panel (Start > Settings > Control Panel) and from there Double click Administrative Tools and then Services.

I think what they are getting at is Start -> Settings -> Control Panell -> Administrative Tools -> Services.

No, OBonio, I think instead it should be Start, then Settings, then Control Panel, then Administrative Tools and THEN Services. lol

Lol, posted at the same time I think.
