TSR Processes

I currently have about 36 TSR processes running on startup and I think that is a little execissive for being a 2 day old PC. I also believe that this is the main cause of my GPF errors I experience while running games. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what processes are necessary and what processes can be ended, and hopefully I can experience a game without any Critical Errors occuring. I can list the processes if I need to.

best thing to do is google each of the processes individually and see what you can find out on them.

General protection fault!

History: UD3DRenderDevice::Unlock <- UViewport::Unlock <- UWindowsViewport::Unlock <- UGameEngine:raw <- UWindowsViewport::Repaint <- UWindowsClient::Tick <- ClientTick <- UGameEngine::Tick <- UpdateWorld <- MainLoop

well there is an example of the protection fault I get...sometimes it happens within a few minutes sometimes it happens within a few hours, but it always seems to happen.
