Start a program minimized to taskbar? HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

N

nikola66

hey folks,
i wrote a simple script to map a drive on my network in a *.BAT
file.......
i wanted this script to start minimized rather than displaying this
annoying Black Window every startup.....
i tried doing something like this in my registry....
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"NetworkMap"="Start/min %systemroot%\install\start.com"

But ti's not working at all :(
What's the problem?
(i tried creating a shortcut in the Startup folder, but the properties
of this shortcut does not allow starting minimized, EVEN if i enable
it)....

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Create a shortcut to the *.bat file and change the properties of the .lnk
(shortcut) to run minimized.
