yeah, is there anyone know how to make a program runs in the autoexec.bat??
the problem it is it update the whole start up menu in every reboot. means, it'll reload the original startup menu every time. so, paste shortcut in startup folder won't work.
try SETI Service, somehow doesn't work for me neither.....
btw, it's running WinNT.
here's actually what's happening.....
i have a college dean which he is my regular customer at my day time job, and quite a good friend to my family too. i talked w/ him 'bout SETI@Home project. and asked (just tried) to see if i could run SETI in his computer lab. and surprisingly, he said YES(!)
.
but the problem is he's NOT giving me any tech support and WILL terminate it if he feels the need.
anyhow, i went over to his computer lab, install CLC & Hide (to give minimal visual impact), starts running fine. then the next day, i've noticed that somehow, there system WILL "update" the start menu in every reboot. which means the shortcut i've pasted into the startup folder for SETIHide is disappeared(!) everytime the system boot up!! and they DO shut down all the rigs at night! so, i'll have to start it manual (old fashion --> double click
).
but the problem is, i really can't visit his computer lab every morning (25mins drive) before work to start the program in 30+ (could have as much as 100!) machines!! it's just too much effort for me!! even if that means could be as much as additional 100+WU/day!!
and that's why i'm trying to find a way to auto start it when the machiness is reboot.
and other problem is, since he won't give me any tech support, he certainly WOULD NOT give me their network/machinesss' admin password neither for the security reason.
he "only" allow me to run this program. but i have to figure it out myself..... sooooo..............any idea...............
