Windows 7 unable to get programs to run at startup

[Nocturnal]

I have CPU-Z, Hardware Monitor and Resource Monitor shortcuts in the startup folder for Windows 7.

It does not start up.

I have an Excel shortcut and that starts up.

How can I get the others to startup?

I've tried adding it to the registry "run" as well as using the task scheduler.

Any other ideas?

I had a problem with a Core Temp scheduled task getting blocked. Make sure that after creating the scheduled task that the program does Not run from anywhere else. Remove all other startup instances so that only the schedule task is where the program runs from.

Just drag a link to the StartUp folder.

The best manger for installed Applications StartUp is this.
