   I currently have Oracle 9i Personal Edition installed on my computer (I use   
   Windows XP Professional). I want to stop Oracle from starting automatically   
   at boot time to avoid having it take up so much processor power in the   
   background. However, I would like to have a way to run it when I do want to   
   use it. What files and/or registry entries do I need to modify to accomplish   
   this if it can be done? (There was a website with this info someone told me   
   when I once had to completely uninstall Oracle, so I was hoping someone knew   
   of one with this info for this situation) Any help would be appreciated.   
   Thanks.
