help netgear disappeared from start up

used the tidy up start up menu thing(as you can see not technical)and obviuosly did something wrong because my NETGEAR no longer starts up when i turn on computer so I have to click on the program before i can get onto internet
How do i set it to start up when computer turns on?
any advice or guidance to the right site would be so gratefully accepted as this is starting to annoy me:confused:

    If you mean msconfig, run it again, and put the tick back in where you took it out, or try a system restore (under help)
    Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:

    Just create a shortcut of the program that you now have to click on (right click create shortcut) and place it in your

    C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

    Try expresso's tip. Is this for a wireless adapter?

    You must have other problems if it takes this long to reboot!
