Autostart

[Dirk Bruere at NeoPax]

I'm having problems with automatically running progs on startup.
It may be something to do with the way the OS is configured. Or is there
a problem in the embedded version of XP?

Are you using a custom shell or Explorer shell?

How are you trying to autorun the applications? Use the registry RUN key to
start them? Or does your custom shell launch them?

I was trying not to use the shell.
Tried registry, or thought I had - where exactly?
