Neither accomplish what the user wants. A "service" is not started via autoexec.bat nor startup menu.

Try the information at
http://www.overclock.net/faqs/119474-how-run-program-service.html or http://kennethhunt.com/archives/001728.html.

If that doesn't quite do it, google for "run program as service" or something like that. You can find programs that will load the program as a service or instructions to do it yourself.

If still nothing, I'll post the instructions I used a while ago.

Please download exe to service (just google it ) and install your exe file as service ... simple
