Solution 1

If you want your application to start when the machine reboots and run without a UI then you could develop it as a Windows Service. A service can't have a UI, but if your app needs to run with no UI then chances are it does things without input anyway.

thank you for your help, but my app must call an other app (exe), and it's not allowed under the windows server.
and i search solution whole day,and i got some answers ,such as
"http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/36581/Interaction-between-services-and-applications-at-u"
"http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/18367/Launch-your-application-in-Vista-under-the-local-s"
but these solution must be login the windows first.
so, i let the windows server 2008 r2 automatic login and then the question solved,
at last i found if i log off the windows again ,the application will not be run.
