Too bad my computer lab has Deep Freeze or something like that.

(It removes anything saved or installed on the computer other than the hard drive and other basic things.
ie save a word document, turn off, come back later, the document is gone.)

If you make a new shortcut on your desktop, make the destination on the first page of shortcut wizard http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSsJ19sy3JI and put press next then next then finish and drag that shortcut to startup and itll come up with the video at startup

I copied the thread topic's typed out lyrics and saved it in a Text Document on my desktop as a .BAT file. Then I clicked it to see if it worked.

Here's what happened:

Command Prompt appears... the lyrics like, scrolls down really fast for 3 sec, and Command Prompt disappears, then a little window with the "We're no strangers to love" pops out. So then I click it continuously, fully functional, I tested.

After that initial test, I moved the whole file into the Startup folder, and now it's there and when I restart my comp, it still doesn't work.

I don't think shortcutting it will work either because it just brings in the file from a different location, but the file is in the folder already. =/
And no, I don't want to hear the song, I want the Lyrics to pop up.

Start-all programs-right click the folder in it "Startup"-click open-drag your .bat file to the startup folder and restart. Double click the .bat file from Startup first, i did that and it started working ;D

The following is the sacred document in Scientology known as OTIII. Scientologists deny it exists as part of their Operating Thetan literature. It was written by L. Ron Hubbard in 1967. Hubbard wrote that if you read this document before you have achieved a level of scholarship, you will get pneumonia and die. The cost to get to that level: $360,000.

“The head of the Galactic Confederation (76 planets around larger stars visible from here) (founded 95,000,000 yrs ago, very space opera) solved overpopulation (250 billion or so per planet -- 178 billion on average) by mass implanting. He caused people to be brought to Teegeeack (Earth) and put an H Bomb on the principal volcanoes (Incident 2) and then the Pacific area ones were taken in boxes to Hawaii and the Atlantic Area ones to Las Palmas and there "packaged." His name was Xenu. He used renegades. Various misleading data by means of circuits etc. was placed in the implants. When through with his crime (R/)Loyal Officers (to the people) captured him after 6 years of battle and put him in an electronic mountain trap where he still is. "They" are gone. The place (Confed.)has since been a desert.” - Hubbard

See it in his original handwriting at xenu.net. Learn more about the fight against the criminal cult of Scientology on whyweprotest.net. Make a difference by copy-pasting this and posting it somewhere else as part of International Post OTIII Day and in honor of Lisa McPherson, who died on Dec 5 1995 after being starved to death by Scientologists

OMFG. I swear this is frustrating seeing people repeat themselves after I said that I already done this. What the ef don't you people get about that!?!

 Holy Crap

!!!

Now I ask again: does anyone have a different solution other than what the Thread Topic posted, because his method apparently doesn't work with my computer. And is there a way to keep CMD from popping up?

I hope I don't see another repetition of what was already mentioned.

ummm im probably an idiot but...whats CMD?

Command Prompt.
Go to Start ~> Run
Type in CMD
You'll see it.

How offtopic is that xD

All I get is CMD scrolling down text, then it closes and nothing happens.

Yea. Same here. The thing doesn't work unless I actually click on the .bat file.
And is there any way to hide CMD while the command is entered?

TC, I'd like to add that if you enter "@echo off" at the beginning of the code the text in the command prompt will run in the background.

Here's mine:

Code:

@echo off
msg * Now, this is a story all about how
msg * My life got flipped-turned upside down
msg * And I liked to take a minute
msg * Just sit right there
msg * I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air

msg * In west Philadelphia born and raised
msg * On the playground was where I spent most of my days
msg * Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
msg * And all shootin some b-ball outside of the school
msg * When a couple of guys
msg * Who were up to no good
msg * Startin making trouble in my neighborhood
msg * I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
msg * She said 'You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air'

msg * I begged and pleaded with her day after day
msg * But she packed my suite case and send me on my way
msg * She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket.
msg * I put my walkman on and said, 'I might as well kick it'.

msg * First class, yo this is bad
msg * Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass.
msg * Is this what the people of Bel-Air Living like?
msg * Hmmmmm this might be alright.

msg * But wait I hear there're prissy, wine all that
msg * Is Bel-Air the type of place they send this cool cat?
msg * I don't think sow
msg * I'll see when I get there
msg * I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel-Air

msg * Well, the plane landed and when I came out
msg * There was a dude who looked like a cop standing there with my name out
msg * I ain't trying to get arrested
msg * I just got here
msg * I sprang with the quickness like lightening, disappeared

msg * I whistled for a cab and when it came near
msg * The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
msg * If anything I can say this cab is rare
msg * But I thought 'Now forget it' - 'Yo homes to Bel Air'

msg * I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
msg * And I yelled to the cabbie 'Yo homes smell ya later'
msg * I looked at my kingdom
msg * I was finally there
msg * To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air

That makes it work at startup? (I'm not going to restart right now so I might as well ask)

Assuming that it does do that, how do you hide CMD when the code is entered?

I take my previous comment back. On my XP, it works, but on my lolVista, failure.

No, all "@echo off" does is make the command prompt load in the background.

If you do not put "@echo off" in the beginning it will load the script in plain sight, and look like this:

But, if do put "@echo off " into the beginning the command prompt will look like this for a second and then disappear.

 Spoiler

It just makes it look better in my opinion.

But but but... how do you make the CMD disappear? If I close CMD before I close the text, I don't get the full string.

It closes itself.

I don't see why not. They're fun to use.

Unfortunately, this doesn't work.
I tried doing it, but all I see happening is CMD popping up, rolling the lyrics pretty quickly, then auto-closing.
The lyrics don't pop up in the window unless I click on it.

1) Is there any way to hide CMD when it's running the code?
2) Is there any way to make the lyrics pop up upon startup. =/

Happened to me too. >_>
