Hi Angi. No lectures, I promise! ![]()
A good place to start is Black Viper's list of Services for Vista SP2 here;
http://www.blackviper.com/WinVista/servicecfg.htm
It's a manual check exercise, work down the list and see if your own Services match his list, one at a time.
However that probably will not show 'particular services' for 3rd party software. The list is stock, for a default install of Vista SP2. But it may help.
In fact thinking about it, if you have Service entries in your own list that does not appear in the Black Viper listing, chances are one of those may be for the Avery Label Wizard. Double click each entry to open a Properties window which may explain what it does.
Just one thought. How did you change your Services settings? There are a couple of ways but the recommended way is through the Services Console itself, and not through MSCONFIG or the Task Manager.

I know, if it ain't broke, dont' fix it... but I'm a bored old lady with MS and sometimes I can't leave well enough alone. So please, no lectures, if you get me fixed, I promise to be 4ever grateful. ![]()
I messed with Services.MSC, I wanted to speed up my system, now I've made it slower.
I tried using Avery Label Wizard in Microsoft Office 2007 today, and it popped up a warning error.
Apparently I've disabled something in Services.MSC that would let Avery work. ![]()
See links for images of errors:

Can anyone tell me which services should be started as automatic, automatic (delayed), Manual, or Disabled at Start Up?
And NO, I can't do a System Restore cuz like an idiot, I turned it off.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Angi
