Hi everybody!

I've already searched within this forum but I didn't find explanations.

Can someone explain me what can I remove between these elements and if not, why ?

-CMD PCI IDE Controller

-CPU Transmeta Crusoe

-Network Setup Wizard

-COM+

-Event Log

-Internet Authentication (IAS)

-Network Location Awareness (NLA)

-TCP-IP NetBIOS Helper

-Command-line Tools

I have an AMD CPU (but I don't add any driver for it), I use FireFox, Gaim, Office Word (2003), µTorrent, Real, Winamp 2.95, Media Player Classic (with FFDShow), World Of Warcraft, Raid drivers, Wireless (with Wireless Zero Config) and sometimes Ethernet port.

Thanks for all.

You can remove *PCI* and CPU* things : they're just drivers and windows can run on all CPUs as long as they're x86. However, windows will run slower without the driver (no 's) for your CPU. My advise is to remove them and integrate new ones.

Keep COM+, NLA, Event Log.

Can't remember the drawbacks (if any) of removing TPC-IP Netbios Helper. Of course, you can disable it in services.msc and see if your current installation still runs what you want but there's maybe something during XP install. I remove it and have no problem but just wait for somebody to confirm.

Network Setup Wizard may have some use for some people but probably not for you; I guess you have DHCP and if needed can enter a static IP.

BTW, though I had it removed, a shortcut is still present in "Control Panel\Network Connections".

(hnetwiz.dll is however correctly removed)

Thank you.

What about the Command-Line Tools? Can I remove them? I rembember that I had problems installing Windows XP after removing them; but I'm not sure that the problem came from them.
