I know how to stop programs from opening on Start Up by using msconfig but, How do I make programs start at Start Up?

I've had a look around msconfig and I can't work it out...?

Anyone know?

I'm running Windows Vista.

Cheers people!

Click Start >Programs and scroll down until you see the folder labeled Startup. Double-click it to open its contents window and drag your shortcuts into there.

Adding a program shortcut is easy, and it�s easiest if there is already an icon on the desktop (which is also a shortcut, btw). Simply right-click on the icon and drag it into the open Startup window, and let go. A menu will open: select �Create shortcut here�. And that�s it. You�re done.
If there isn�t a desktop icon, hover your mouse over the Start button, and then Programs. Now the list of all your programs appears. Again, simply right-click and drag the ones you want, as outlined immediately above. Now the next time you boot Windows, those programs will open for you automatically. A neat little trick.
