Save your presentation as a PowerPoint Show (.pps) file and place it in
Windows Startup folder. In Windows XP, the Windows Startup folder is located
at:
C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
Replace <user> with the login user's name.

Now when you start Windows XP, the presentation should start automatically.

Sometimes, if you just save your powerpoint presentation as powerpoint
show, Your powerpoint slideshow also cann't aotorun, because you need
to set up the trimming of the slides.


What? And anyway, the question has been answered to the OP's satisfaction.
