What is PIconSta Application????

#1 Post by marge201 » Thu Oct 27, 2011 10:09 pm

My new W500 seems sluggish. Going through startup and I find PIconSta Application and I find nothing on the internet. Safe to uncheck?

Also "Bluetooth Software" by Broadcom Corporation. I'm not using bluetooth. safe to uncheck?

Also "Digital Line Detection" by Avanquest Software.

Input would be appreciated.

There's many Lenovo and/or Thinkpad items (not looking at it right now; can't remember). would never dream of unchecking any of them. No problem at all you say? That is tres interesting. I will think about it and ask my computer guy. THANK YOU!

would never have thought of unchecking (or stopping from running at startup) even one Lenovo or ThinkPad item. Will think about it and discuss with my computer guy. thank you!
