Hello there!
 
How can I start some proggy (ISDN Monitor) when my computers starts?
 
I need to start it before anyone logs in...
 
I found this useful function in Sheduled Tasks that task can start when my computer starts ("At system startup")... You must set under which user the task shuld start and so on... But it won't work for me...
Everything looks okay, but proggy isn't running when I log in...
 
It neither works if I place the proggy to my HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices... or other similar registry branches...
 
Any idea how can I start this proggy with system startup?
Any idea why Sheduled Tasks won't run the proggy?
 
Thanks,

Try running the program as a service.... you can use FireDaemon to accomplish this.

the current version of FireDeamon doesnt support XP. They say there will be a new version out soon that does though.
