How can I start a program when Window's starts? I know it
can be done but can not figure it out.

Thanks
 
What is the program Amy? In the majority of cases there is an option in the
programs configurations to start it when windows starts. In this case all you
need to do is put a check mark in that option. {]:~)
 
Hi Amy,

Open Windows Explorer to this folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Click file/new/shortcut, then browse to the executable for the program you
want. If you ever get tired of it, all you need to do is delete the
shortcut.
