msconfig type utility in WinNT

Is there a program built into NT that allows you to select which programs are loaded upon startup? I'm looking for something similar to the msconfig utility as part of Win98.

Thanks.

I believe that this is the closest thing to it.

You can add the /sos switch to the Boot.ini file to have NTLDR display the Kernel and driver names while they are being loaded. Use this switch if Windows NT does not startup and you think a driver is missing or corrupted.
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\Winnt="Windows NT Server Version 4.0" /sos
