I am creating a installation program and noticed that on non-NT Windows machines the mssqlserver service doesn't have the autostart option set. I found the place in registry where the autostart option is stored for NT, but I can't find the place in non-NT Windows' registry. I have the command that will start the service in non-NT machines (scm -Action 1 -Service mssqlserver) but that cause a message to come u saying the service has been started and I don't want that. This is MSDE 2000 that I am using with mixed security.Thanks,Kevin" |

| Windows 9x doesn't have services. I think SQL Server mimics them somehow. I believe that mssql will always be running on Win9x. |
