I've found a couple of .exe files in my startup that, after doing a search still haven't been able to find out what they are and, more importantly, whether they should be there. (Windows XP)
1gfxpers.exe
OV550EM.exe
TDHelp32.exe
Wondering if anyone can shed some light on what are these files.
Thank you.

Try reposting this in the 'Q&A' forum. The 'Discussion' forum is for matters of general discussion, not specific problems in search of a solution. The 'Water Cooler' is for non-technical discussions. You can submit a question to 'Q&A' here:

There are TR members who specifically seek out problems in need of a solution. Although there is some overlap between the forums, you'll find more of those members in 'Q&A' than in 'Discussions' or 'Water Cooler'.

Be sure to use the voting buttons to provide your feedback. Voting a '+' does not necessarily mean that a given response contained the complete solution to your problem, but that it served to guide you toward it. This is intended to serve as an aid to those who may in the future have a problem similar to yours. If they have a ready source of reference available, perhaps won't need to repeat questions previously asked and answered. If a post did contain the solution to your problem, you can also close the question by marking the helpful post as "The Answer". .

[b]Though[/b] if you have a nVidia [b]GFX[/b] Graphics Chip Set in your Computer the first one is related to that and that's without looking.

and the second one is related to the DLL Libraries that are sort of Vital to Windows
