I think you should use the registry rather than the WIN.INI file.
The Run keys (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_CURRENT_USER) and StartUp
folder are loaded *after* the user logs into Windows 95, Windows 98,
and Windows Me.
The RunServicesOnce and RunServices keys are loaded *before* the user
logs into Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me.
For further information please take a look at the following MS KB
article:
INFO: Run, RunOnce, RunServices, RunServicesOnce and Startup
