Looking for a event id that can tell me that the computer has started

Hello,

Found a solution but not exactly what I was looking for.

I could not find a "system startup" event id. If may be out there but I could not find it.

I settled for the Event ID for Norton startup. Its Event ID is 34.

When Norton starts, I can trigger an e-mail to be sent to me.

Thanks for all who looked and responded.

Sounds like a good alternative.

I still think just putting a link to the batch file in the Startup folder would work as well, but as long as you have a workable solution all is well.

For the system startup look at Kernel-General Event ID 12

That's in my Windows 8 Pro X64 as well. Looks like a good one to use.
