Hi,
Is there some kind of system notification that Windows XP signals when
it has finished loading all the services during boot? And also,
(hopefully) after executing everything in the Start Up program group?
I have an HTPC that is not connected to PC monitor and I would like to
play a sound when I know the system has fully booted.

Thanks.

The Task Scheduler API has a Boot Trigger object that could possibly be
used. It would work perfectly if it was guaranteed that the Task
Scheduler was the last service to start (of course, that doesn't include
Start Program items, but that's not a big deal). Does anyone know if
services are opened in a specific order and if so, how to order them?

Thanks again.
