We used to do this to map the public_html drive in the 102/205. We had a .cmd file to map the drive, and put the path to the file in the Registry. I think it was [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] There are probably other ways to do it, but that worked for us before.
