Sounds very much like XP in which case Autoexec.bat is irrelevant except for SET commands. The .bat file, or a shortcut to it, could be put in the STARTUP programs file so that it runs when Windows is loaded.

Here is a quote from this Wiki. Quote
Windows NT and its descendants Windows XP and Windows Vista parse AUTOEXEC.BAT when a user logs on. As with Windows Me, anything other than setting environment variables is ignored.

As Dusty said, the easiest way to make it start with Windows is to add it to the startup folder.
C:\Documents and Settings\[YOURUSERNAME]\Start Menu\Programs\StartupI generally feel a teeny bit suspicious when the question, "how can I make a PROGRAM startup by means of a script?" comes up. thanks to all for you replays
