What processes can I shut down.

[flair1239]

I have a Gateway laptop.

I am experiencing ocassional lag, that is not connection related.

I have 526MB of RAM. When I play I have 6 lobbies open and usually am playing 3 tables.

I have PT open twice, once for instant HH retrievals and one for E-mail retreivals that go into a separate database. I also have PAHUD, GT+, Ultimate Buddy and the Task manager open.

Upon Startup, my task manager is showing 43 active processes. I have Windows XP.

I use a dial-up connection, but it is a good connection.

Are there any processes that I can shutdown or tell not to startup?
