LOL I was a little curious, if you made an .exe file could you stick it in the registry? I was working on this kick ass quadratic plotter, and my laptop is a little slow, and finding the file and starting it up is annoying. Is there anyway I can make the registry start it up when windows XP opens? Thats all my laptop is designed for ... so... help lol? Is there a way I can add a command to startup to make it read it? |

Can't you just stick it in the start up folder? |

And what's really good is that you can automatically get the username:
