msconfig: startup. what do i really need to safely boot my computer?

bootup takes almost 2 minutes (on an otherwise great laptop). i need to know what i can disable safely to improve startup time. as i understand it, disabling means i can start an app later, after the computer is already booted, to use it.

so: what do i really need to keep enabled in config.sys (or msconfig).

thank you!
