Default FS Autostart and SH3

I read on this forum that this program can be used to free up RAM before launching SH3. However, whenever I launch SH3 using the program, I get a stick keys phenomenon in which control inupt from the keypord or touchpad lags significantly. I went through the processes list and tried to not touch anything which I thought might have something to do with the keyboard or touchpad, but this had no effect. Has anyone else had a run in with this?

Thanks

Default Crashes to a blue screen

I tried FSautoStart last November and December until I had a glitch, crash or something happened with it. Since then I'm experiencing intermittent crashes to a blue screen when I exit SH3.

Beware, there is a risk in using FSautoStart.

Like I said, turn the Tool Tips on. FS Autostart is fool proof. If I can run it, anyone can.

If you stick to turning off the start up items you'll be okay. If you turn off the wrong process item like I did, you'll like have something go wrong. Just my opinion.

So don't turn off wrong processes. Read what it says and don't do what it says not to do. It's very simple even if you see a computer first time in your life.

PS I never had an idead HOW FREAKING MANY processes run there in the background... Now I know why my background is black.

I use FS Autostart for launching all my games since a long time on different PCs and never had a problem whatsoever.
