AutoIt "System Startup"...
don't know if we have any AutoIt'ers here... but...


here's one that solved a problem at work where a few coworkers get impatient and start clicking away before the computer is 'fully' up-and-running then they complain that boot-up is "taking forever"...

it opens a "progress bar" at startup that scrolls as the process-count increments... it reads from an .ini so it can be 'tweaked' to the process count for any PC... it's really nothing "major", but fig'd i'd share it Big Teeth

note that the .ini will write the startup registry entry for you if you set the task variable as 'yes2'... it sets the reg as XP's default when set as 'yes1'... the progress bar runs when the task variable is set to anything else, ie 'no'... the 'min' / 'max' variables define the process-count range, the progress bar turns itself off after a delay determined by the 'last' variable...


AutoIt'ers should be able to figure it out from there, lol... Big Teeth
