Click start, click Run, type in 'services.msc'. Find slimserver in the list and double click on it. Set it to automatic. This should cause it to start on boot. -- mrlaird mrlaird's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com

In 6.3.1 IIRC you can do this when you install, when it asks if you want to install it as a service, or you can do this later through Start - Run - "services.msc". Set SlimServer to Automatic. -- Mark Lanctot Mark Lanctot

It should be an option when you rightclick the task bar icon. Otherwise, it asks you during installation whether you want to set it to autostart so reinstalling and changing that option may be a quick fix. -- radish radish

Thank you for your reply. How would I enable autostart? -- SlimChances SlimChances's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=165 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30076 ___

Is the process running? It sounds to me like it's not set to auto-start and so it's only started when you launch the UI from the tray icon (which has the sideeffect of starting the server if needed). -- radish radish's Pro

Is slim.exe running? Check services.msc, it should be shown as running and automatic. Does he use the tray icon? What does it indicate? -- Mark Lanctot Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?us
