well what u can do is start AVG and check if its configured to run at startup or not ...2nd go to msconfig ..and see if startup entry for AVG is disabled or not ......

IF u are undable to run AVG it means some registry entries are deleted ..so either reinstall or if there is option to repair the setup..repare the files ....

well what u can do is ..put a shortcut of avg in startup folder .....go to start->all programs->startup
right click on it and select open folder ...now just paste a shortcut of avg here .......hope it works for u...

if there is a fine startup then why do you want to add it in the msconfig ?

u c there is something called avg resident shiled that USED TO LOAD automatically at startup..it detects the virus instantly for eg.,when a floppy containing virus is inserted into the drive..this is very useful is'nt it.?.its not possible for me to manually start the program eveytime i boot up..thats the reason i want to msconfig..

anyway will get back after trying the alternative of adding the shortcut to the startup folder
