Re: run boinc at startup

Assuming you are on Windows, I'm sure you know how to create a application shortcut to the BOINCmgr.exe and drag that to your StartUp folder on the Windows All Programs menu. Next time you boot andsign in, BOINC will start automatically.

Alternate, re-install as service and it will start up even when you don't sign in. If you do that yoiu can start and exit BOINCmgr without interrupting the service running in the background.
