A start part can contain as much or as little standardized setup as you 
want. I work with a start part that has a given set of parameters that
need 
to be filled out, a set of layers, standard named views, default datums
and 
csys, units set as well as a default material, a reasonable abs accuracy 
value as well as anything from the Setup menu that you might want 
incor****ated into every part you create. Then, when you have the 
configuration parameter TEMPLATE_SOLIDPART set by browsing to the file you

want to set, this will pop up every time you create a new part, as long as

the box is checked that says 'Use default template'. When you use this 
template part, it's the same as opening the part and doing a 'Save as'
with 
the new name. Then, it doesn't matter what geometry you create in this
part, 
you'll have certain basic stuff set up the same way from one part to 
another.
