Can you get Hyperspin to auto start?

[thegreatiandi]

Hello from Las Vegas all!

Since we all are using some sort of computer to run our hyperspin front end, I was wondering if anyone's come up with a way to have your operating system boot up, then go directly into hyperspin? Bypass all desktops......needs to click on shortcuts...etc. I think it gives a more professional look to our home arcades if you never once see any transition from Windows-desktop-hyperspin.

Perhaps this is something that is already done and I'm not aware of it. If so, anyone got any clues on how?

Thanks all

I used the search feature with " auto start from hyperspin ", and nothing. I will try again with different key words.

Thanks.

......or the simplest way would be putting the HyperSpin.exe in your Startup folder.  But of course you'll be seeing the Windows boot logo.....which isn't that bad.

That's how everyone does it. There are several ways.

The simpleist I sthe same way you auto-launch any program like Heycool said. Just put it in your Startup folder. However just doing that can cause it to have focus issues with other startup programs.

You could also use the Startup script to manage this (in the download section).

I use the newest version of Tur-Volume-Adjuster which is a must have for cabs anyway and the new version lets you launch other programs and even time them out so they don't interfere with each other,.
