login as admin
create a new text file and save it as "stop_all.cmd"

in this file type net stop "service name" (you can get a list of all services by typing "net stop >C:\1.txt",the list will be in c:\1.txt)
then all you have to do is identify the services you dont need and stop them.

to start then the command is net start "system service"

with a .cmd extension the batch file will exit automatically.
