mxmaster is the program responsible for orchastrating the entire system.

Before spawning any processes, it copies the following files from s:\ into c:\System\Execute:

  • mxsegaboot.exe
  • mxauthdisc.exe
  • mxshellexecute.exe
  • ringmaster_pub.pem
  • develop_regset.txt
  • lockid.txt
  • d3dref9.dll
  • mxsegaboot_2052.dll

Following this, it begins to spawn system processes as required. The full diagram can be found on the boot process page.
