    I have just recently noticed that the programs that I have in my Start UP folder are not start up when I boot up. I checked my start ups in System Configuration Utility folder and they are all checked with others

    Any suggestions??

    Thanks

    One program doesn't want to start, or more of them?

    Well as best as I can tell it is only the programs (5) that I placed in the startup folder in the start menu. The other programs that I see listed in the startup list in my system configuration are starting. I have the selective startup box checked and also the load startup items box.

    Hi bmartin. In the system Configuration Utility instead of having the selective startup option selected change it to normal startup. After you change it to normal startup reboot the computer and see if the items in the startup folder boot up with Windows.
