Where can I find a list of services that XP Professional needs to start and run successfully without loading unnecessary things?

I seem to have a long boot of extradanry sequence. I checked with the listing services under administrative tools, and according to the list that appears, I have excess of 127 or so listed services.  Some are in automatic mode, some are on manual, none are disabled.  My question is, where can I find a list of services that XP Professional needs to start and run successfully without loading any of this filth?

Yes, I understand that some of this "gunk" is things I need for installed applications, but I'll sort that once I put my minimal optimal operating system to boot the system.

I appreciate the help.

Here is where you can find what services should be automatic, manual, or disabled according to your needs. It is really useful.
