Running a batch file as a system service in Windows Server 2003

Question

I currently have a batch file used to start a voice server application in C:\Teamspeak. The application cannot start directly because the batch file passes settings to the application. Is it possible to have this batch file start the voice server every time the server is started?

Thanks!

You can use the Task Scheduler to run anything you want at system startup.
