Let's see, APC Powerchute, nView Properties, andLinux Menu (sucks up 256k of memory unless you turn it off with a single click), a scanner (not ready), Zone Alarm, Volumouse, EVGA Res Changer, Volume Control, OpenDNS Updater, Ad Muncher (no ads at all on FileFront), nVidia Settings, RU Botted, Ai Booster, DAEMON Tools Lite (virtual DVD drives), Windows Defender, Citi Virtual Credit Card, a deactivated network connection, Yamaha XG Midi SoftSynthesizer, avast! Antivirus (two icons) and the standard removable media disconnect icon.
About half can be deactivated, but as a general rule all are running when I run SH4 with no problem, except for Windows Defender, which sometimes I have to terminate. I could make a difference by temporarily turning off avast's realtime file scanner too. Those two are the only two that I can detect any bad effects from.
Oh and you can see I'm running two browsers right now, Firefox for Windows and Konquerer for Linux in two separate Windows windows, along with the KDE Konsole giving me a fully functional KDE Linux command line inside Windows. I could start SH4 right now and run it decently well on this February 2007 machine.
