Is the application supposed to start automatically when a user logs in?<br />
<br />
If so, does each system log in automatically after startup, or does each user have to log in manually?<br />

<br />
Is the application started identically on all the systems?<br />
<br />
Are all the systems running the same configuration and the same revision of Windows?
