    Music autostart on bootup?

    Im interested in installing a small dell desktop into my system but what i want to do is be able to just turn the power on and have music automatically start playing without me having to load everything and without a screen to look at (well maybe later). And just use the keyboard to bring up or change songs. Is there a program out there that I can use?

    Any media player can do that.
    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?



    Under normal circumstances, a signature would go here.

    okay so if I format the computer, set it up with one user, and setup realplayer I can make it automatically start without having to do anything but press the power button?

    well if you are using it in a car, then use something like RoadRunner. Good for touchscreens. All the frontends are good like Centrafuge and others. When it boots, the front end loads, and plays music.

    In the forums, go to software --> frontends

    You will see most frontends listed.
    Choose the one you want.
    For RoadRunner, In the first sticky under the roadrunner tab, guino has posted updates. At the bottom in his signature, is a link to his site to download.
