So its possible to make it start up when the PC boots?

You can do this with any app. It's the same as if you opened it yourself. When you log in to your account, Windows just opens whatever is in the file.

Open notepad and paste the following…

@ECHO OFF
ECHO Starting Server..
.
.
START C:\DirectoryToServer\Server.exe
.
.
ECHO Server started!

Save it as AUTOEXEC.bat, then place this into C:\
Windows will run AUTOEXEC.bat on startup by default, the command inside will then run your server. Don't need VB or anything at all, just a little batch. Let me know if this works, I haven't used batch in a while. Ive also never tested this on Vista...
