Does anyone know how to prevent AutoCAD Mechanical from loading the various mechanical modules at startup?

I don't use any of these features and would like to remove the overhead.

Thanks

Doesn't that come also with a <<VANILLA>> profile? If so, why don't you load that?
 
Do you have any startup flags toggled for startup (within the shortcut)? Or are you opening a Mechanical drawing by clicking on it (this invokes the routines automatically)? Normally, Mechanical routines are demand loaded and not at startup.

Using AutoCAD Mechanical 2006, UGNX4, XPsp2, MSOffice 2K3

Thanks for the responses!
Changing the shortcut to vanilla profile is great for what I use it for. Startup is much quicker!

Cheers,
Ben
