    try reading the instructions a little more closely.

    Windows 98, XP, NT, 2000, Vista and later users *** likely what you want

       1. Create a shortcut to the batch file. Additional information about how to create a shortcut can be found on document CH00739.
       2. Once the shortcut has been created right-click the file and select Cut.
       3. Click Start, Programs, right-click the Startup folder and click Open
       4. Once the Startup folder has been opened click Edit and paste the shortcut into the startup. Any shortcuts in the startup folder will automatically start each time Windows starts.

    Windows 95, 3.x and MS-DOS users

    ARE you using windows 95,3.x or MS-DOS?


    Place a line in your autoexec.bat that calls the batch file each time you want to boot the computer. For example:

    CALL C:\myfile.bat

    In the above example each time your computer starts and processes the autoexec.bat file it will call the batch file myfile.bat.
