I've been using 'selective startup' for some time now but want to get back into 'normal startup' (these settings are in msconfig) but everytime I choose Normal Startup and reboot its still in 'selective startup'.

Tonight in safe mode I chose 'normal startup' and rebooted and hey pressto I was in 'Normal Startup' BUT........:D when I deselected some items from the startup menu and rebooted, I was back in 'selective startup' again.

Any ideas how to get back in and stay in 'Normal Startup'

Normal Startup is defined as all services and startup items checked. Deselect any and it's selective.
