I installed the Soundmax drivers for my P4P800. How do I get rid of
the SMAX4.EXE and SMAX4PNP.EXE processes?
I unchecked 'Show Soundmax on the task bar'. This causes the icon to
go away from the Tray, but the 2 processes are still being loaded at
startup.

Um, they are necessary. They're not chewing up CPU cycles, you want them
there.
 
you can uninstall the drivers. Downside is, you won't have sound. (unless
you add a different sound card, but then you will have other processes
running...)
 
Have a look at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.
