• Boot This tab contains advanced boot features. Here you can see

every copy of Windows you have installed, set a default OS, or delete

an OS from the boot menu. You can set up a safe boot, or adjust

advanced options like the number of cores or amount of memory to

use. Selecting Safe boot, by the way, will force Windows to start in

Safe mode on every reboot until you deselect it. Safe mode loads

minimal, generic, trusted drivers and is used for troubleshooting

purposes. It’s better to use the F8 key to get into Safe mode (Windows

7 only), but see Chapter 16, “Troubleshooting Operating Systems,” for

troubleshooting issues.

• Services This tab is similar to the Services tab in the Task Manager.

You can enable or disable any or all services running on your PC.

• Startup This tab enables you to toggle on or off any startup programs

(programs that load when you launch Windows). This is perhaps the

most useful tab, especially if Windows is slow to load on your PC.
