loop continuously from start up

I want to be able to start my PC and have it loop a powerpoint presentation
continuously from start up without having to go to options and then click
loop continuously. It is showing a presentation to patients outside my
consulting room, and my PC is in my room but has no screen.
I am using Win 98 with PP viewer.
I can get the show to start straight away by putting it in start up but is
there a switch I can use to also get it to loop continuously from start up?

Edit the presentation and go to Slide Show--> Set up show. On the left side
of the dialog box, about halfway down, you will see a check box for "Loop
Continuously". Check that box. Ok your way out, then resave your
presentation. This time, instead of saving it as a PPT file, save it as a
PPT Show. (Do File-->Save as and click the drop down box next to the file
type entry.) Change your startup entry to point to that show instead of the
original file. You should be all set.
