I have AsTray, AsAcpiSvr, avgnt (Avari AntiVir), SynTPStart, cfmon(not essential but a pain to remove and doesn't alter things that much). Everything ticks away nicely and boots in about 25secs.
While your at it take a look at this thread for aps

I spent a few hours with BootVis and the main gain was when I changed from DHCP to fix IP. Went from 50sec boot to about 30sec.
BootVis is useful to see what is slowing things down, but don't bother with it's optimisation options, XP already has this built in.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by changing from DHCP to fix IP?

Bootvis does not work for SSD.
In fact, all it does is decrease the life of you SSD.

I believe he means he changed his network settings so that his IP is set statically/manually instead of requesting one from the router.

My 2c:
I removed everything except for SynTPStart.exe , it's the one which does "mouse-wheel from touchpad" (i.e. when this field to right on your touchpad scrolls document).
I suspect that AsAcpiSvr.exe only draws nice "message windows" when you're adjusting LCD brightness, or volume, or turning WiFi on and off, i hardly need this so it's disabled too.
P.S. Probably i disabled something which would break WiFi functionality but i haven't tried that yet

"ctfmon(not essential but a pain to remove and doesn't alter things that much)"
CTFMON is very easy to get rid off:
1. disable CTFMON with AutoRuns or MSCONFIG.
2. Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Languages > Details > Advanced > check the box that says "Turn off advanced text services."
Done!
