These startup programs are often one of the biggest causes for a computer to startup and run slow. In the Startup tab, you'll be able to start and stop any of the programs ( TSRs) that open each time your computer starts.
The Startup tab is one of the most frequent reasons most Windows users enter the System Configuration utility. Unchecking a box disables the service from starting. Check the "Hide all Microsoft services" box at the bottom of the window to only see non-Windows services such as driver services and program services. The Services tab allows you to enable or disable any of the Microsoft Windows services or other program services you have running on the computer. In Advanced options, you can adjust additional settings, such as the Number of processors to use during boot, maximum memory, and other debug options. This tab allows you to make the same adjustments you can make in the Windows boot.ini file without having to edit the file.

If you've changed any of the settings in the Boot tab or disabled any programs or services from starting up, the Selective startup will be selected. By default, Normal startup should be selected.
